[QUOTE="ZaraB, post: 120654, member: 9108"] Hi Natasha! I was in a very similar position (and felt a very similar way to you) when I started applying to TCs bar doing the LPC. I would really recommend building your confidence by pushing yourself out of your comfort zone by doing something you would normally be scared to do and trying to do that on a regular basis, your confidence will improve. Fake it until you make it, then soon you will realise you built your confidence! I am sure every applicant has felt the same way comparing themselves to others, but a lot of applicants including myself just learned the skills necessary to succeed at every stage of the application process - how to write good applications, practiced WG's, got to know what is expected from AC's. I would recommend getting the premium membership on TCLA - it helped me a lot to see the standard of applications necessary to be moved onto the next stage, I also did a mock interview with TCLA which gave me a lot of necessary feedback. Best of luck :) [/QUOTE]
