Has anyone got any tips for a commercial awareness presentation secion for an AC, or can link me any useful threads on here? Thanks!

Hi, I'm not sure how to approach this TLT application question: "Which of TLT’s 5 values resonates with you most and why?". Do I briefly explain how that value is important to me, and cite an example following STAR approach? Thank you

I don’t think it needs a STAR approach, although you could take this format if you wanted. But I would try to show multiple ways in which you demonstrate that value and explain why it is important to you rather than one example (which the STAR format is really for).

Got it - many thanks Jessica!

Is it just me or did everyone else see this also. When submitting the HL application on Vantage there was no section to fill in university module grades. Do they not require module grades.

I'm pretty sure I had to fill in module grades? Then again I acc can't remember properly; I think when I put in my degree and uni the module box pops up or something

Thank you for this and will drop them an email now. It is weird as I did not see any section for mitigating circumstances also.

RPC Assessment Centre

Does anyone have any experiences with RPC Assessment Days? It will be my first AC and so I'd rather go in completely blind

If a business is looking to expand in Asia and they have ongoing litigation claims - how would this be an issue? would this be considered as an issue?
