… how does one reject an application like this 😭

u/ChineseCartman 5d ago

You seem to have at least met the criteria for the test, according to their document. Have you emailed them and tried to talk to them about this?

u/Acrobatic_Ear_2397 4d ago

I did not. From the rejection letter it was pretty clear they do not want anyone to appeal. And idk what was the reason, I think its just Im from Economics BSc and the application does not leave much space to prove you have sufficient background (I uploaded additional documents but I doubt they even read it)
