Hi guys, is there any point in me applying to TS now for a TC? Their deadline is in July but if you guys aren't getting replies is there any point??

They still haven't started considering the TC apps (last email I got told me the soonest I could hear from them would be end of March) so I think it's deffo still worth a shot applying :)
