If you have 4 experiences - yes. 160 hours is maximum credit. You don't need to write about them all - only 1-2 they recommend.

You would put 2 weeks as you cant gain credit for the hours you've not completed

have you checked your portal - not email?

I suggest calling them (when they're open) & sending an email now with your full name etc. so they can make a note of it - it might just be a technical error xx

Thanks guys - just received an email from them about it now. It's not currently on my portal but hopefully it'll update tmrw.

I haven’t received that actual link yet - but I did receive an email saying that I need to complete the r and r form on the portal. So check your email. From reading previous posts, quite a few received the actual form later than the email if that makes sense - so I’m going to check tomorrow.If you don’t have an email either- I’d ring them tmrw. Hopefully it’ll come soon!

I assume they'll read up to the character limit on each section and anything extra you wont gain any credit for but wont be penalised for or it may just cut off any extra characters on the section when it was sent

Should I be worried? The characters over will probably not be too much as I did aim to write 200 words
