    I will do Jessica. However, I am a bit worried that my constant emails would be seen as passive-aggressive and might affect a potential TC application - do you think grad rec would look at this negatively..?

    If I applied for a firm's VS and am now applying for its TC (same cycle), should I write completely new answers if some questions are the same? @Jessica Booker
