I got 22/36 on mishcon‘s SJT (6,6,6,4), high numerical and verbal and thought the chat interview went well …. silence rn tho 😬😬 do you guys think mishcon are just sending out small AC batches?
Think they’re conducting acs for spring rn and not for summer.
From some messages on the forum, I am thinking it’s in batches.

Edit - please let me know if I am wrong and if someone has got an ac for summer. (I am yet to take my sjt).

    No clue. I have 18/36 which I imagine is below what they'd want but whatever, hope they take into account my high numeral and verbal :D . Nothing here so far though.

    Only 1 person said they were rejected post app but thats all, the majority have been invited
    I get the point of not sending pfos as they might send them all together later (I don’t agree with this approach tho). There might be people who didn’t get an sjt at all which could also mean rejection at this point? But also no news is good news? Hahaha
    Pretty confusing but let me just focus on doing well on the sjt anyways😭

    Yeah similar for me (19/36 but high numerical + verbal). Maybe they look at everything but who knows.
    Would like to improve my amberjack pillars but not sure if the practice i did actually helped or put me more in my head loll
     
    Me seeing all of these posts about Mishcon as an outsider who didn’t apply so has no idea what yous are talking about re the AI chat and SJT:
