Haha! Me too! They said end of Feb which obv should be today or tomorrow but I’m guessing might actually be next week as the “end” is technically the weekend. A friend has an offer for Spring VS and I’m so pleased for him and very jealous!
Congrats to your friend! Yeah I think so too, I'm trying not to think about it but I keep checking my emails even tho I know nothing has changed!

Hi!

If it is any consolation, I’ve gone back through my emails from when I applied to their spring vacation scheme last cycle and I didn’t receive the test + VI invite until the 13 March, with the VS offer following on the 17 March. Still some time to hear back if they’re following a similar timeline as last year! :)
Thanks! Did they only give a very short window to do the test/vi then?
