How many TCs do you guys think they will offer to those who applied for the direct TC route? around 20?

Tbh I thought it would be higher because they said they considered VS and direct TC applicants the same.

With only about eight candidates per day over six AC days, it would seem that the conversion rate from AC to TC could be relatively high then?

 

[Freshcutgrass]

I was under the assumption they had morning and afternoon slots for the AC? @ArthurWeasleyLaw

 

[ArthurWeasleyLaw]

Ahh! I think you could be right. Maybe 100 AC applicants for X amount of TCs for this direct route!

Yeah I reckon it’ll be maybe 1 place for every 3 applicants ratio wise.

 

[Freshcutgrass]

Anyway wishing you the absolute best of luck @ArthurWeasleyLaw <3

 

[ArthurWeasleyLaw]

I hope we find out today. Been a while now!

I also wonder if they are separating AC’s for LEV FIN and traditional route 🤔

Well done! Do you know how long they’ll be calling people for? Do you think they’ll email rejections today too?
