Nothing from Barclays, assuming it's a silent PFO.

I don't know anyone who has heard from Barclays so I'm hoping that they are late with responding..

whilst i appreciate your eye for detail I think its rather petty that you are checking grammar on an informal forum- surely you could be doing better things with your time

Don't worry, the post between yours and mine here was from the person commenting on your grammar

Nope, we're law students wanting to be solicitors. Attention to detail is crucial, even on an informal forum.

Aaaaand because I think my post might have been caught up in a bit of a spat, has anyone else applied for an open day at Shearman and Sterling in June? Or has anyone ever been to their offices/one of their events? :smile:

Has anyone had to a numerical reasoning test for a law firm? I have done the SHL practice test and it was insanely hard, mainly because of the time allocated to do the questions! How did the practice test and the real thing compare in terms of difficulty? Thanks
