[QUOTE="M_m, post: 193178, member: 29727"] I applied last year and made it to the AC. For this question, I spoke about my interest in coffee brewing. From what I could gather from the interview, this aspect was what made my application stand out. So I don’t think it needs to be a law topic as long as you frame the answer in a strategic way. For instance, two things I really focused on my answer were: (I) the skills I was able to pick up from coffee brewing like attentional to detail, creativity, and how experimenting with coffee brews from around the world enhanced my cultural awareness; and (ii) a clear narrative on how I became interested in this and a tangible example of what I was able to do with this interest. I gave the example of how I was able to showcase a coffee brewing technique from my hometown during a university event, etc. I think overall, the firm is looking for passion for whatever subject-matter you’re talking about and how it has shaped you as a person.
