Recently been invited to complete Weil's VI.

Just a quick question in regard to dress code- is a suit mandatory? Or does a shirt/tie suffice? Or, could I wear a 1/4 zip with a shirt & tie underneath?

Thanks!
 
Thanks mate. Another quick thing, should you provide different answers from those on your application? I don’t mean worlds apart, but I don’t want to come across as basically re reading my answer to them?
I wouldn't feel too bad about that. Really important not to read from a sheet when you do it - memorise a structure of the answer fine but do not read from a note behind the camera as it looks incredibly obvious

Thanks Daniel. With the business story, do you relate it back to law? Apparently there's only one-minute to answer, so not sure if I should just focus on why it interests me.
 
I have my Weil VI due soon for the vac scheme and was wondering if anyone remembers the 2 questions they got? I am incredibly nervous and particularly worried about the second qs which is a commercial awareness one. Would truly appreciate any help!
