[QUOTE="trainee2025, post: 173205, member: 8482"] from what I recall from last year, there were instances of people doing well in the TC interviews but unfortunately not really being in contention because their written exercise (sometimes done several weeks before the interviews) was below a certain benchmark. I think it's quite a strange way of doing it but yeah my understanding is that each component is weighted equally subject to a certain benchmark being met in the written exercise. Also, as mentioned here, this is really the only bit of written work they see at this stage so it doesn't surprise me that they place quite a bit of importance on it. The personal statement isn't considered at the AC stage and whilst the VS has a written task in which is assessed and could I suppose act as a sort of 'second chance,' the direct TC process doesn't have this.
