I'm taking it to mean the same thing, although I am aiming to submit on Friday evening. I am thinking of placing the word count in brackets after the question title within my PDF.

I got sent it on Monday also, and will submit Saturday morning (the time they sent it on Monday for me)
It took about 2 weeks for me from the time I did the SJT to being sent the research questions. I'm not sure how they judge your SJT, but if it helps, I passed to the next stage and my 3 strengths were Attention to Detail, Collaboration and Social Adaptability too.
Although the question is along the lines of 'would you challenge someone if they were doing a process incorrectly', am I correct in comparing this to, say an example, of a team mate not having a strategy/incorrectly strategising in relation to a challenge/task I was involved with?
I started by first discussing why I would feel confident challenging a colleagues process and when it would be most appropriate. I've then used an example to show what i learnt from that situation, and the impact of my involvement in changing our strategy. All touch on their core values e.g respect, teamwork etc

We have the same strengths! Fingers crossed I hear from them soon with good news! Good luck with your application, I really hope it goes well
Hi, I reckon no later than 2 weeks, as that appears to be the standard time. Best of luck!
For anyone who is completing the commercial awareness questions how are you interpreting the word "incorrectly" in the following question:
3. Taking into account the firms core values and drawing on any examples you have from your experiences, would you feel confident enough to challenge your colleagues if they were carrying out a process incorrectly?

'Within' 5 days taken literally means the deadline is on Saturday at the time the email was sent - I was also worried it needed to be in today but I think Saturday morning should be acceptable?
Just that they've made a mistake, or an error, somewhere in their process. Basically, how would you deal with noticing your colleagues have made a mistake.
Just the automated grad recruitment response but nothing else.
