Normal
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
