entirely up to you, but I would email as the stage two invites (in my experience, got sent out relatively soon after). I did my stage two, but then they said I hadn't (wasnt in the system), so I had to do another one. Their system is so unconvincing because it never sent submission receipts to my email. its been a faff but hopefully we'll pull through!
They said during my VI we’d hear back early Jan so if that’s still the case, we should hear by Friday (otherwise it’ll no longer be early Jan).
They might have gotten loads of last minute apps though and esp cos of Xmas and NY, there might be some more delays in hearing back.

I applied soo early in the cycle, got my VI invite on 03/11. But i was very confused to see that someone with a higher SJT score than me got a PFO, but I still haven’t heard anything yet …
Must’ve smashed the VI, there were people who applied after me too and got PFO I’m assuming they’re shortlisting
Would also love to know if anyone has heard from Slaughtes for the DTC
Dead silent inbox today, not a single email!
Yeah I’m in a similar situation to you. I applied for the Weil VS early Nov and received the SJT and VI on 24/11. I sat the SJT on 14/12 and did the VI with early careers on 17/12. I’ve seen people applied after me and/or who took the test after me get sent PFOs so idek what to think tbh.
What's your score? I applied 11/10 and still haven't heard either after sitting the test in 24/11. I think I was answering in 90 secs each question which far below the max time of 2-3 minutes. My amberjack overall score is only 24, so pretty mediocre as I treated it as a warm up for this cycle.
Hi @FutureTraineeMaybe I'm assuming this is for an AC of some sort, in which case I think its worth asking in advance, so that they can see if a room is available/assessor to sit in with you. You should explain that its for anxiety purposes as such requests aren't usually given for no reason, and I'd be surprised if anyone asks for a formal diagnosis letter because the truth is, many things are undiagnosed - it doesn't mean they don't exist. In either event, there is no harm in asking and this will not be viewed negatively. Good luck with the presentation!
So sorry, I didn’t see this notification! You’ve probably already sat the exam by now but no, the new RPC assessment doesn’t have a VI element included
Hey @alphabravocharlie I would wait until tomorrow, Wednesday is usually a good day to hear back when it comes to these sort of things. However, by 2pm if you hear nothing then send them a gentle nudge just to make sure nothing was missed.
Ik this has been asked numerously, but is Milbank’s stage 1 a normal SJT+ 2 app qs? Is the SJT amberjack ?
I've not applied but I know this information so I will consolidate what I've learned from this thread for you 😂
Yes, it's a SJT and 2 timed written questions. 20 mins to write each answer. The SJT is their own, I believe it's on Shortlister, so not an Amberjack. Stage 2 is a WG.
