[QUOTE="Tattyasha, post: 193714, member: 27273"] Don’t lose heart, you’ll get there! I’m also on round 2 (possibly 3) and it’s relentless and demoralising. Many people do this cycle after cycle but the only people who will never get a TC are the ones who give up…. Couple of thoughts though, maybe look at the applications you made that were successful vs now. What’s different? You’re evidently frustrated at the moment. Take a break, do some positivity boosting stuff and take the next application with a fresh approach. Maybe your feeling that the improvements you made means they’d be mad not to take you is inadvertently coming across the wrong way. It’s easily done - I know I’ve done it! Approach each one with less of an “I need this” mentality but more of “what will be will be”.
