From what I've understood, you're generally free to withdraw from a TC offer up until you’ve accepted any financial support from the firm or started any onboarding processes, such as law school/SQE prep or the formal TC onboarding. I would encourage you to carefully consider the terms of your offer. That said, it’s important to keep in mind that some firms may not allow you to participate in their vacation schemes if they know you’ve already accepted a TC offer with another firm. It's worth checking individual firm policies to avoid any issues.Finally, you're right - if you're asked why you didn't secure a TC in a previous vacation scheme, it's perfectly acceptable to be honest about the fact that you were offered a TC but decided to explore opportunities at larger firms.
