Yeah, did the analytical test earlier today - but that's definitely crossed off the list. Was hoping for something apart from that, yeah

Surprisingly not, slipped up on little things - You didn't get points for getting parts of the question right, so for example if you need to choose 10 answers within 1 question(It was multiple choice), I got 9 right, but couldn't get the 5 points for the question :frown: ah well

given i expressed interest in stucturing/pricing derivatives for corp clients, it was very much focused towards that, and given my degree i suppose they just went with the line of questioning i guided and hinted towards. i felt very much in control of the interview.

it was tiring, given it was the 3rd but continiously learned throughout so very beneficial.

Do you get AC for your first preferred division only or do you get to pick between the first and second preferred division you chose?

We don't get it today, they said next week which is still quick in my opinion. How did it go for you by the way? What was the procedure for you?
