How soon after Stage 1 of the Macfarlanes assessment did people receive the Stage 2 assessment?

Some of these firms really need to work on their website. One talks about their winter VS in their FAQs - they are not offering a winter VS this year.

Another says in FAQs all opportunities are open to graduates of any disciplines, but in the description for literally each VS/TC non-law grads can't apply.

So tedious and for what

Hey, still curious if anyone could help with this!
