What to include

What to leave out

Filler cases where you weren't the primary manager. Quality beats quantity — always.

Frequently asked questions

Do examiners actually read portfolios?

They skim, then dig. A well-organised portfolio steers the questions in your favour.

Should I include reflections?

Yes, short and honest. Examiners value insight over polish.
