[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 114322, member: 2672"] Unfortunately, I can't answer this clearly beyond what the firm has already told you about weighting of each exercise. There isn't one approach to assessments and so I would only be making similar assumptions to what you will. However, if it was a timed exercise, it is quite common for them to not be finished. Generally, if they are generous on time, most people would complete them to the necessary standard. If it was an exercise you were asked to do in your own time, then it's going to depend on how busy you were elsewhere (e.g. with your department) - someone who has been kept busy with client work is likely to be given some slack compared to those who have had time to complete such assessments. This sounds slightly blunt/brutal but I wouldn't try to over-analyse it now or try to anticipate what might be - I don't think it is particularly helpful to do so. You have to wait until the decision comes back and/or you get feedback on how they perceived you did. You can't change what has happened with the assessments, so I would just try to think about other things you can control now, rather than those you can't. [/QUOTE]
