Oh, I think I applied for spring so i'm not sure if that person had an AC for winter?

 

[James Wakefield]

Any news (good or bad) from Weil this week?

 

[Madison Pinewall]

In other news. Received Paul Weiss AC for spring. Applied day before deadline. Any insight please PM me. I’ve heard it’s very technical

Did PW have a test? I never received one but thought they did haha

Just received my WG report from Linklaters- 72.5% in the test overall and 59% percentile... there goes another PFO

Is that a bad percentile? I got the same haha, but I passed 2 years ago with links with a 23% percentile for the WG somehow 💀. They said their sjt is much more important

I wonder why Links makes applicants take the watson glaser when they also have a critical thinking test in their custom designed sjt?

Oh that makes me feel a tad bit better. Keeping my fingers crossed!!

Honestly as scary as it seems, they love their SJT over WG. So until they send that PFO there is still a chance

Also, heads up for anyone waiting on Links. They randomly select AC dates to resit the WG, so I’d maybe brush up on some practice tests still

Just curious, when it says 59th percentile - does it mean of general WG test, the general population or 59th percentile of Linklaters applicants who took the test? Because the two will be totally different.

How are people seeing their WG results for links?

Would anyone with a Links AC invite be open to sharing their sjt strengths and weaknesses? Fine if you want to dm too! Thank youuu

strengths: motivation, working with others
weakness: resource and work management

Anyone heard anything for Bristol office Simmons vac scheme?

 

[Bruce Wayne Attorney at Law]

So happy to say that I accepted a TC offer right before Christmas 🥳🥳 A huge thanks to TCLA for the support over the last two years ❤️

NGL was so tempted to tell you guys earlier because we've been in this together but wasn't allowed to share the news.

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!! Honestly you have been a star on this forum and will never forget your words of wisdom which helped me a lot during a particularly challenging and frustrating time. You more than deserve the offer, congratulations once again!
