[QUOTE="coolwizard22, post: 217119, member: 41046"] I think what Macfarlanes are doing is assessing all three alongside each other. I reckon the second OA was sent automatically, regardless of the first OA score, despite what it says on their website. Alternatively, they may use the scores from the OAs as a filter to determine which applications they read e.g. if you score above a certain benchmark, they will read your 300 word application and make a decision based on that. Also, this is for a Spring VS, no other firm is progressing people to the second stage this early in the cycle; some firms haven't even opened their springs yet! It's all happening too quickly and too randomly, that's why I think the 2nd OA is automatic. [/QUOTE]
