[QUOTE="axelbeugre, post: 174691, member: 30937"] I understand the logic behind it and I think it makes sense but I personally would not use them just because they might not consider it as professional. There is a way you can be concise, precise and structured with your answers/recommendations without bullet points, and I think you should write everything in prose in these kind of exercises. This is because they are also trying to gauge how well you write and it is difficult to do so if you use bullet points. The use of bullet points might be considered unprofessional by some in my opinion. If majority of law firms tell you to stay away from using bullet points in the work experience section, it naturally follows that they will probably not be as open for a written exercise too, that is my thinking process. Good luck with the written exercise! [/QUOTE]
