[QUOTE="Rosie_Kitten, post: 233665, member: 43597"] Update: Just completed the Milbank Stage 2 assessment. I'm unsure how I did, as for the first time in a while, I got stumped on a couple of questions (where even after reasoning, I was unsure). Nevertheless, it's submitted - all I can do is wait. I'm not so optimistic about prospects, though, given the competitive nature of Milbank, I almost wish I could comment on some of the questions so they could understand my thought process. Then again, lots of law is making judgments under pressure, so it's a fitting assessment. I did recognise a few questions from a practice I did a long time ago, although I had already forgotten the answers/solutions, so it didn't help me much. Interesting that somebody could potentially have a huge advantage if they did tests with the same practice questions? . I also received a very positive report from the Mills & Reeve assessment. I assume they give everybody a similar report (very high numerical and positive comments for the others). I will take the feedback on board to better prepare for other assessments, and won't assume anything from it. I applied since the last post to a few more firms: Clyde & Co, Squire Pattern Boggs, Fladgate, and Womble Bond Dickinson. Originally, it was part of my diversification process; however, in research, all of them seem like very strong training environments and development. Of course, I could see myself thriving in all of them; however, many of these firms particularly look for legal work experience. Perhaps I should start contacting smaller firms for work experience opportunities? [/QUOTE]
