Average turnaround time for Apple Repairs?

[emiljan]

Does anyone know the average turnaround time for apple repairs?

I took my MBP to the apple store on Tuesday and the genius told me that they had the part in place so it should not take that long.

I'm concerned that they will take a long time and i need my laptop for Saturday when my school starts again.

It usually takes a week for me, but then again I don't bring my computer to an Apple Store. I bring it to a small private Apple Authorized repair shop. You wouldn't believe how tiny the shop is!

IF they don't have the parts in the shop, it will take longer.
