Anyone ever been asked for your grades after partner round but before an offer? I’m so weirded out by it. It seems a really weird juncture to ask me. Have they decided they aren’t sure if I’m dim??

They obviously don't trust their own recruitment process and judgements so are resorting to arbitrary measures, happens a lot 🚩🚩🚩

I couldn't care less what grades someone got or where they got them from. There are so many factors that candidates can't control about their background.

Show me what you have done in your career, explain your ambitions for the future and come across as a good person. These are the current factors that are important.

What firm

Correct

Got the offer a week later. No idea what that was all about tbh - very odd. Either ask me during my application or not at all.
