Now I'm not suggesting you aren't good enough OR "you don't stand a chance". In maths terms, just over 1% of people that apply will get offered (less <1% if towards 10k). For many people, it has taken multiple attempts to get through - there is lots of blogs that confirm this.
Are you going to continue holding out hope for that, or can you start now and plan effectively to make it happen?
Good luck.
the latter. Thank you 4KBeta.
Best of luck too!
