[QUOTE="pepsicola96, post: 250423, member: 35776"] Interesting predicament. So for this one firm, I got an AC for their Spring Vac. I unfortunately had to reschedule due to illness, and then right before the rescheduled date, I cancelled again bc I heard back that I got another scheme with clashing dates. I was super honest (which I maybe shouldn't have been lol). I said I can't attend because I've just gotten a different scheme with the same dates. I said under other circumstances I would like to attend and make an informed decision should I receive an offer from both; however, I would be travelling a long way for this AC, and I had an exam the next day, which I really needed to study for instead, and I apologised for the inconvenience. Which again is all true, if i lived in London I probably would've just done the AC anyway, but I just didn't have the time spare to spend on an AC that I may or may not be successful in, for a VS offer that I may or may not accept (I also am unavailable for the summer dates) I still like the firm, and provided this other spring VS doesn't work out, I was wondering about asking If i can have a direct TC AC, when they open that up in May. I will probably just ask, because I've got nothing to lose, but I've been such a nuisance to them, I feel like it will be a no. Just wondering if anyone has been in a remotely similar situation haha.
