    Well, completed my Baker VI on 26 and still haven't received an AC invite for spring, so since people are receiving invites I'll take it as a PFO. That marks my 11th rejection this cycle, despite having an MC vac scheme, brand ambassador role, 2 first year schemes and a predicted first under my belt. I freaking hate this
    Don't rule it out just yet! It took me 6 weeks after doing a VI with Weil before I got given the AC when others were doing ACs before me so try and stay positive if you can. No news is definitely still good news :)

    One thing I will always stand by, is the only thing you should take as a rejection, is a rejection.
