It took me about 2.5 hours to do it, especially the case study.
The case study was easy, but I wasn't sure how to approach it. I used SWOT/PESTLE analysis but made it very concise because of word limit
I just did Pinsent Mason's Blended Test. Towards the end, my computer crashed a few times and so I had to close the browser. It didn't affect the VI portion. However, since they said at the beginning of the test that they record the entire process, is it worth contacting grad rec and letting them know about it?
I just finished it too now and Idk if I am over the deadline? Honestly didn't expect it to be this long, this was such an intense assessment. This assessment should have been split in multiple parts honestly. They definitely shouldn't be telling us to only expect to spend an hour on this!!
Also, anyone cares to say what their weakness was for Linklaters? Mine seemed to be an important core value

It doesn’t have to be formal, but I would go smart. For instance a shirt with a collar (eg polo or golf shirt) or a blouse, rather than a hoodie or T-shirt.

Does anyone have insight from previous years as to when Links starts getting back to people after the deadline passes? Reckon there would be anything before the new year?
late jan to mid feb is when most people hear back according to previous threads.

I personally would email them just to confirm that everything works on their end and to explain the situation to them. However, I personally would not worry too much because you have done the most important part of the test which was answering the question.
Good luck with the application!

Congratulations!! Amazing achievement!!Slaughters Direct TC interview invite! Applied 19th October. My first ever interview so any tips are much appreciated
When does Goodwin gets back to you post the submission of the application? When does it conduct ACs?
Any idea on how strict Pinsent Masons takes the report received after the blended assessment? Does it count much more towards the overall evaluation of our application than the application form?
