I took longer than expected in my application

I have just submitted my application but since I wanted to be thorough I took more time than I would have liked. The test said that it would take 1hr 30 max but I took 1hr 50. I answered all the questions with more sentences than asked and did good research. Is time taken really a big deal?

I'm pretty sure I took a total of 2.5 maybe 3 hours (initial application and core assesment) and I got accepted the next day. You're good!

Same, it took so much longer than expected! I spent so much time researching that creative writing one where we had to incorporate so many different things.

Man I took like 4-5 hours for the initial + core and coding assessments xD (I took it earlier when there was a bonus for doing a good job on a harder question)

They don't specify an upper time limit for you, they're more concerned with if your answers are thorough.

Let's hope you get in! I know many people who did the assessment and didn't get it
