Understood, can only hope for the best.

Has anyone else received a written answers application submission from Reed Smith again, or is that just me? I did that stage last month, so bit confused as to whether it's just a system clash or not, because when I saw the notification, I assumed it was an interview invite and got way too excited seeing the words next stage and delighted on the tab before fully reading it

Yeah a few received it. It was an error, they're still yet to get back to anyone.

Anyone heard back from Stephenson Harwood post test?

 

[Harvey Specter - Presiding Partner]

Is anyone still waiting on these firms, or heard back with a PFO or next stage recently:

Bakers post SJT (I scored 6-6-6-5, high verbal).
BCLP post test
Macfarlanes post stage 2 (Job Sim VI)
SullCrom post app

Not sure whether to assume PFO for these firms or still hold out hope for something positive…​
