Linklaters' Watson Glaser test

Hello, and sorry for the incredibly short notice, but I am just popping in to ask if the Linklaters' Watson Glaser test can be completed after the application deadline?

This is the firm's guidance as per the website:

"Candidates must complete the short online form (30 minutes) and the Capp Online assessment by the application deadline. Candidates will have a 5-day deadline, from the date of their application, to complete the Watson Glaser online test."

Since the application deadline is today (15 December), I am unclear whether this guidance means I can still complete the WG tomorrow if I completed my application yesterday - would greatly appreciate any guidance! Thank you very much!

I think you have 5 days to complete your WG as long as you get the form in by the application deadline. I would confirm this with the firm by sending. a short, polite email to grad rec if you're still unsure!
