[QUOTE="Raphael Yan Bing Khoo, post: 9695, member: 596"] Hi Nichol, I completed the Freshfields AC last month and was successful. 1) Written exercise: You will be asked to read through a draft e-mail by the partner to the client and be asked to check for (i) spelling and grammar (ii) style and tone (iii) any uncertainty in the phrasing and (iv) redraft the last paragraph in your own words. 2) General interview: Questions will flow directly from your Personal Statement. My biggest tip is to have a good story to tell and make your responses interesting and exciting; the questions are quite predictable so having interesting examples would make you stand out 3) Analytical interview: They asked for a short summary of the article at the start and then asked very specific questions of several terms in the article, i.e. pros/cons of a Franchise, what is an Angel investor, etc. My biggest tip is to not be overly taken aback by the type of questions they ask (they will most definitely push you a bit) but take your time and think through your responses. Always have a structure when answering the questions, i.e. I have 3 points... First, Second, Third, etc. If you are stuck, ask them for clarification and try to work around that. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
