You beat me to it! I sometimes even forget I applied to Latham because of how quiet they've been

Same lol. I had a look over last year's thread and saw someone mention that Milbank is one of the few firms that doesn't bother to even contract you if you are unsuccessful. Not sure if this is true or not, maybe @Jaysen can weigh in?
Anyone heard anything from Dechert post-VI and written exercise?
Wouldn’t it just mean that we’ve ‘completed’ the test?
I have not, but I contacted them to check if my VI had submitted (tech issues) and they said we'll likely hear end of the month/beginning of Feb.
It's stressful when this happens but it's neither a good or a bad sign - it's simply a test to see how well-developed your motivations are and if you can respond clearly even if you are under pressure. If you get a hint and reply correctly, that in my view is an indication of your ability to adapt to new information - I personally don't think it's a problem at all!
Hey guys, I'm filling in some application (not for a law firm) and the question is : ' please explain how you will manage your time with your studies and other commitments if you were successful in securing a place '
What am I supposed to say in this? I know I have good time management skills but I can't write an answer on it.. I think saying something like 'i create a schedule and allot time to everything during the day' just seems too superficial and speculative?
Any advice please?

I'm unsure how to answer these two questions and would be grateful for some insight please @Jessica Booker | 2000 character limit per question.
1) From your research, what have you learned about Fieldfisher?
- Should I pick 2-3 points (practice areas, training, etc. almost like a "why the firm" type question) > start each point with basic info e.g. "firm specialises in A,B,C" > then go into more specifics and evidence?
2) What interests you pursuing a career at Fieldfisher and why have you applied to take part in the Diversity Access Scheme?
- I feel this somewhat ties to the previous question and is basically a "why the firm" question?

Anyone still not heard from DLA post WG?
I have not - I sent them an email yday and they j said to wait
I think you should answer honestly. If you create a schedule and allot time to everything during the day, then thats what you should write. Maybe you order your tasks in terms of importance/priority. Maybe you allot time for any urgent incoming tasks. Maybe you anticipate how much time you will send on each task or allocate time for consistent breaks to prevent procrastination/burnout etc. just a few example you could use.
Then give a real life example as to when you have applied this e.g., you balanced responsibilities whilst preparing for exams during your degree which resulted in x outcome. Honestly be truthful - they just want to know how you organise your time. Hope this helps!
Does it not just say completed as you have completed their application, or has this status been updated from something else?
