So, I have a question for anyone that might know. my cat scratched up my MacBook Pro screen and I need to fix it before the new one gets announced so I can sell it. Does anyone know what the turnaround time for screen repair at an apple store is?

yes I do have AppleCare+ and its for a MBP 16"

like is it same day service? or do they take it out to a repair center to fix?

sorry if this isn't the right section
 
I would expect it to be gone 7-10 days.

If you get it back any sooner, that's a plus.

during the summer of 2020, it took them about 7 days for my 2017 Macbook Pro

I did mine in the store for my 2018 15" and it took a day. I asked them to order the part to the store instead of shipping my mac to an offsite place. In-store repair is usually quick even if it is busy.

thats actually a good idea!

never knew I could do that

and you were able to keep your Mac until the parts arrived.
