Hello everyone!
I hope your application cycle is going well.

I have just been invited to Burges Salmon's AC. I have read the thread created here about the AC experience at the firm. However, no one mentioned a written exercise which was explicitly indicated in my invitation email.
This is the task that I struggle the most in ACs, thus any information what I could expect would be highly appreciated.

Thank you so much in advance.
