I'm sure they do. I suppose it's possible we aren't supposed to see those scores! ha.

Sometimes firms do this, but it's not always the case.

do you know what firms?

If we're doing a written exercise where we need to recommend one of three possible courses of action for a business, should I spend most of my comparing and contrasting the three in or focus more on using SWOT on the single course of action I think best?

I don’t know unfortunately.

I’d personally focus on the one you choose. If you explain the positives and negatives (and explain how to potentially mitigate the negatives), it should come across as a well considered answer.

If you have a follow up interview on the exercise, just be prepared to talk about the other options though.

However, I think you could do all three and still do well in the exercise.

Anyone have any tips for Kirkland AC?

for the Latham 1st year scheme, is VI the final stage or is there an AC for it?

 

[Palilegal]

If it is any consolation, I have already received a post-app pfo so don't give up hope just yet!

Aw, I'm sorry to hear that. I feel awful getting consolation at your expense :'( hope you have another opportunity waiting for you at the end of this application cycle!
