It is unlikely that firms will check back to your old application to check for growth, but it is still a possibility at interview/AC stage. I believe it is fine if certain elements...- Amma Usman

Hey @TC Chaser . In my experience, the CA competitions test commercial awareness live. This means you’ll need to keep abreast of upcoming and current industry/global trends.
