Obvious answer, it depends. Based on my own experience / observations I think 8-12 weeks is the average. There are some longer cases, but there is a rule that you get to roll off after 6 months. Don't know too many As or Cs who have done a case that long though.

Agreed all over the map. Feel something like 4 months might be the median (at least for Cs)

like

I've done everything from eight days to a year! But agree that a lot of cases would fall somewhere in the three to four month range.

I too would like to know

Thanks for the input guys!

Yup 2-3 months has been most of my experience
