One. Can’t go wrong with navy. Black not really an issue regardless. I wouldn’t bother getting a new one unless you’re so stressed about it you think it’ll affect your performance.- Mug Fan

I subscribed to the commercial awareness course on TCLA. The key with commercial awareness is to build it over time - eventually you start seeing/recognising the same themes cropping up and your CA feels organic and not crammed. TCLA course gives you a 15 minute revision/quiz every day of the...- Mug Fan

Humblebrag/mushy post alert… Just found out I’ve secured a DTC. Incredibly excited to be getting off this carousel! Just wanted to say thanks to this place for keeping me sane over the last few months. From sharing advice to hyping each other up, this place has been a reminder that there are...- Mug Fan

The alternative is to not apply and see if you get the TC that way... (I'm obviously being facetious, but it's as simple as you have to be in it to win it, so yes, it's worth it).- Mug Fan

Yes, you can. At least I have. Or at least I was able to via the system! Imagine they'll just auto-reject me.- Mug Fan
