I recently took the baker mckenzie VI which I think went above average well. I was able to answer all qs but got cut off at the end by the timer and couldn't follow star in all qs. However, I think there is a glitch in their system because I received an email stating application accepted and for a duplicate application right after i submitted my video interview. They were sweet enough to immediately respond and say my application was still under process. Did anyone else face this?

How long after the VI/ how soon before the AC do u get to know?
