[QUOTE="abhuzaifa02, post: 229434, member: 43461"] Hi [USER=28081]@ssss[/USER] Honestly, I know exactly how you are feeling. It is very off putting when you think about how many people are applying and how many spaces are available. My only advice is that this whole journey is battle against your mindset. After ensuring your application is perfect and getting the basics right, you have to be confident in your ability as a candidate to make it through regardless of the number of people that apply. A positive outlook: [LIST] [*]Out of 3000 applicants, many get rejected simply because they do not meet the foundational requirements or due to simple errors including spelling, punctuation and grammar errors or due to simply copying and pasting answers. [*]Nevertheless, if we assume that approximately 1000 – 1500 candidates get rejected due to the aforementioned reasons, that increases your chances by %%%. [/LIST] Overall, it is never helpful to focus on the numbers so try your best to block out the noise. I faced pure rejection in my first and second cycle and managed secure multiple assessment centres and vacation schemes in my third application cycle. So if someone like me can do it, I am sure you are more than capable of being that one person. Hope this helps everyone! 👍 [/QUOTE]
