Can confirm I passed the SJT exactly on August 5th and haven't heard back yet, they usually get back in three weeks minimum so people will probably start seeing outcomes within the next two weeks or so. They were the first one to open whereas many aren't opening this year until mid-September to October, so they're probably seeing a lot of applications!

Can I ask where they state we should hear back within 21 days? I don’t remember seeing that anywhere
i saw it on the confirmation page after submitting my app
Still waiting on Macs, off the top of my head only seen one rejection on here.
I still haven't head anything from Boodle since my TC interview on the 12th August.
From what I can remember, people posted that GR team had to go through a lot of application for the VS and then they would scroll through TC apps.
Good luck
Just got a rejection from Boodle - but best of luck if you're still waiting! fingers crossed

I'm sorry to hear that. Sending positive vibes your way! Do you mind me asking if you had a TC interview with them a couple of weeks ago?
Nope was just post-app direct TC!
Submitted the A&O app like an hour ago, got an email saying I'll be sent the link to the SJT within an hour.. it's been an hour now, i've checked all my inboxes and haven't got the link. Is this normal?
The email also says if I haven't got the link in an hour, I should drop an email to GR using the contact details provided (but there are no contact details provided??)

Just give it until the end of the day. If you haven't received it overnight, contact them first thing tomorrow morning. Is the email a "no-reply" email? If not, just reply to that.
Thanks! I'll do that. And yes, it's a no reply. I've managed to find GR's email on the firm's website so I'll send an email to that address if i don't hear by tomorrow morning
