I've not heard anything since the email saying they would be in touch by the end of June 2023 the latest.

Yep same here

I sent an email recently and got this reply so maybe due to many applications they are taking their time:

"Thank you for your email and your interest in the Solicitor Apprenticeship Programme at Pinsent Masons.

Due to the large number of applications received, we are still in the process of screening applications for the 2023 Solicitor Apprenticeship Programme (London & Manchester) and will be in touch in the coming weeks to inform all candidates about the outcome of their application."

Pinsent Masons is one of the last firm apprenticeship cycles still open so they are likely dealing with a relatively large pool of applicants, it's a shame but most law firms rarely provide feedback unless you get to AC (final stage) and are then rejected (and the quality of this feedback can vary). One thing to note is that in our network we know several apprentices who have taken gap years and been offered schemes the following year at A&O and NRF!

I don't mind well it start with just .multiple choice where you pick the best option and the worst option

Next you will have questions that is a long read for example another worker is having trouble understanding a contract and you will have give him a response that in one of the options

After these questions you will have a maths ones

Then there going to be video part where you recorded you self answer a question

Finally an eassy they will give you at the end to write
