Any insights for HLC stage 2? Happy to support with Macfarlanes both stages, HSFK and W&C all stages

VI at FF is part of the Stage 2 Online Assessment, which is received after meeting the benchmark of Stage 1.

VI at CC is more selective in that you need to pass (the newly introduced) immersive online assessment, the WGT and then application review.

Do you know if we have to complete CC’s WG again even if we passed it last year?

I received it about an hour ago, applied on the day apps opened

Any insights into Mayer Brown? Can help with s2 for FF, Macfarlanes, and HLC. Also can help with stage one Mills & Reeve and Pinsent Masons
