[QUOTE="ZNadeem, post: 217396, member: 40237"] Congrats on the AC invite – that’s a huge step! [B]Group exercise tips[/B] [LIST] [*]Collaborate, don’t compete – build on others’ points, encourage quieter teammates, and keep the group moving towards consensus. [*]Listen actively – respond to what’s been said instead of just waiting for your turn. [*]Be concise & balanced – make several short, relevant contributions rather than dominating with one long speech. [*]Stay positive – keep your tone polite, professional, and solution-oriented. [*]Expect a mix of prep, discussion, and maybe presentation/role-play. Even if there’s a commercial element, they’re really testing how you engage as part of a team. [/LIST] [B]Case study interview tips[/B] [LIST=1] [*]Communication – explain your thinking clearly; use PEA (Point, Evidence, Analysis). [*]Attention to detail – scan the documents carefully; small details often matter. [*]Confidence under pressure – stay calm, speak clearly, and if unsure, think out loud. [/LIST] How to prep: [LIST] [*]Review key legal basics (contract, commercial law). [*]Practise timed case studies – focus on spotting issues, structuring your analysis, and presenting logically. [/LIST] During the interview: [LIST] [*]Structure your answers clearly (PEA). [*]Engage with the interviewer. [*]Stay concise – they value clarity and efficiency. [*]If stuck, show your thought process rather than freezing. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
