The case study is not particularly challenging - you're in a room with about 5 other applicants and you do it on a computer, and print it out. It's not particularly time pressured - just read fast and keep you response clear and well structured. The partner didn't actually look at my response before or during the interview, but we discussed the material I'd read. It's important to look at the issue through the client's eyes, what their interests and concerns will be and how the firm can help them. One thing I wasn't prepared for was the sheer quantity of other candidates. A number of groups from different time slots were sharing a room to wait in. It unexpectedly psyched me out a little bit so just a forewarning!</blockquote>
