[QUOTE="billyonthespeeddial, post: 214521, member: 27428"] I have three small things to contribute 1. Everyone has different application strategies, but for a lot, including me, 9 is not a lot. Zero out of nine doesn't mean you're not competitive. It's luck. 2. Vac schemes are on the surface easier to get (not always- I know some DTCs are easier) because they will usually have a bigger cohort than the full TC intake, but some are quite tough to convert. 3. Next year, since you can do VSs, I'd choose the firm first, then pick which option seems easier to convert. For example, you might find that a Freshfields DTC is just as likely as a vac scheme place statistically, while others like Travers Smith might prioritise their vac schemes. [/QUOTE]
