No problem!!! I probably spent about 2-3 months on it as I watched a lecture every weekend (with a week or two off) and completed the work for it during the week :) It was so worth it though. I made sure to really digest the information in the lecture and I would say the last one is...- cmaj

I haven't QUITE been successful in my TC hunt yet but I was unsuccessful in every app last year. This cycle, I've received one VS offer with one upcoming AC so far, after getting to VI/the last stage before AC with all other firms. I am waiting to hear back from four of those so I might be able...- cmaj

Agreed with what everybody here has said! I would also add - try not to over prepare. You want to show them your natural self so make sure you have a relaxing week in the lead up to the AC :) On a separate note, Dheepa I would LOVE your feel good music recommendations. I don't know if there's a...- cmaj

Georgina, I sympathise with this so much. In my first year, I applied to three firms, got to AC for all three, and did a VS. Then in my second year, with all the experience I'd gained, I put every second into my applications over many months and got rejected by everybody! It's totally...- cmaj

I'm not sure what the statement is for the first one that you have to assess is true-false? For the second one with the bag, you have to remember the 'some' and 'not all' are unknown quantities and could mean anywhere between one and all. We know that all plastic bags make noise, but not all...- cmaj

So sorry to hear :( I was rejected 3 years in a row by HSF and every time it crushed me so I understand how you feel. Relax today, pick yourself back up, and redirect your efforts into another firm!!!! Everything will work out in the end!!!! Did you get your application reviewed by Jaysen? If...- cmaj

You are right, I totally understand that, but I'm sure they also realise that so many applicants will have had their applications checked and double-checked. It almost makes the rejection harder by simplifying it to a list of qualities followed by "your university careers service will be able to...- cmaj

Mine was the same! You couldn't save your application so had to restart every time you came back to it. It was very frustrating!- cmaj

Yes!!! I thought the same thing! Especially given the fact that one of the points of feedback in the list was "Attention to detail (including spelling, punctuation and grammar)" and on top of what you said, there were definitely missing commas in the email and the random capital letter in...- cmaj

Also PFO from SPB, I applied in the same week as the deadline as well I don't know about any of you but I found the rejection email quite patronising? Where it said "Unfortunately in this instance we did not feel your application demonstrated all of the above to the level required. Due to the...- cmaj

Welcome to the TCLA Forum Version 2.0!
Agreed! It would be great to have the react options at the bottom all the time too, next to the quote and reply button. I think this would make it easiest to use, rather than loading them each time. Either way, this new format is BRILLIANT work!!!!c EDIT: Ignore me, I've just seen the comment...- cmaj

Agreed with everybody above. I'm in my third year of applications after having a VS in my first year yet receiving no offers last year! You cannot give up, no matter how hard. I had so many days where I felt like I'd given everything and couldn't understand what I was doing wrong. It's just...- cmaj
