Q1The firm hired more trainees this year than last year.
Show answer
✓ Correct answer: True
A 40% increase in intake directly means more trainees were hired. 'True' is fully supported by the passage.
Q2The firm opened a new office outside London this year.
Show answer
✓ Correct answer: Insufficient Data
The passage mentions expansion into new practice areas, not geographic expansion. There is no information about new offices.
Q3Fee earners worked harder this year than in previous years.
Show answer
✓ Correct answer: Insufficient Data
Higher billable hours suggest more work was billed, but this could reflect improved tracking or rate changes rather than harder work. Insufficient data.
Q4The firm's total revenue increased this year.
Show answer
✓ Correct answer: Probably True
More fee earners and higher billable hours per fee earner both point toward higher revenue, making this probably true, though billing rates and write-offs are unknown.
Q5Environmental law was not a practice area at the firm last year.
Show answer
✓ Correct answer: Insufficient Data
'Expansion into environmental law' could mean a new area or a growing existing one. We cannot conclude it did not exist previously.

Show answer
✓ Correct answer: True
62% versus a national average of 55% directly confirms this is true.
