I applied for Macfarlanes Vac Scheme and was rejected post assessment centre, my feedback was valuable in identifying where to improve and it was suggested that I can apply for the direct TC if I work on the development areas.

Question: When sending an application for a direct TC in the same cycle of a vacation scheme, are there any specific changes or reflections you mention in the application which show you have reflected on the VS rejection, or do you not mention that at all? Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks

    Just of out curiosity, how long did it take to improve your WG scores to get through that stage? a few months?
    I just practised every day with the free tests I found online from the day I got the WG invite. So a week. I practiced the sections I was bad at specifically.

    EDIT: Grad Rec confirmed my score, not percentile. So if you ask for a score they'll give a specific score.
