Has anyone done the Macfarlanes assessment stage 1 and still not received an update/ report back? Should i be worried, I did the test Tuesday night, so it still hasnt been 48hrs yet, but I am seeing some people get a response within hours of completing it. Any reassurance would be amazing!

hey i did it on monday and recieved my feedback report last night x

hi can someone pls clarify, is the a&o VI completely untimed? so i can do research / turn off my laptop etc before recording?

is there any point me completing A&O's test? I completed the app form and filled in the work experiences, but i have three 2:2 modules across my first 2 years at uni (I avg a low/mid 2:1). I have a silver circle VS which I didnt convert on my CV but reading the thread about A&O's grade policy is making me think whether im just wasting my time.
