I had a final interview last week. At the end of the interview they had no additional questions for me beyond the scripted ones. They also didn't ask at what stage I am with applying to other law firms or give me details of when I would hear back. Is this a bad sign?? it's making me really worried

AG assessment centre!!! …does anyone have any experience of the AG assessment centre? Please DM me if you can share any experience or pointers. It’s my first AC and whilst I’m happy to have got this far I do suddenly feel very overwhelmed! Any other pointers or advice is greatly appreciated.
