If grad rec said they'd get back to me 'by Christmas' post-AC but they still haven't (the AC was a month ago), is it worth emailing them? @Abbie Whitlock @Andrei Radu I would appreciate any advice!

How do Written Exercises work? Is it a standardised process where everyone who is invited does it at the exact same time, or is it staggered? Any insight to this would be appreciated if I was to be invited to one!

I thought it was a PFO bc I was supposed to hear back on 12/12. I emailed grad recruitment this morning asking for a status update and that’s when I got my VI

So gassed. If anyone has any tips please let me know!
