Should I reapply for springs or do SA recruitment?

Hi, so I go to a target and didn't land a spring mainly due to inconsistency in test performance passed; some tests didn't pass others. Still, I've been religiously practising numerical and SJT test. I have been getting ten on them on jobtestprep, so should I reapply for springs and say I'm doing a year abroad or do SA recruiting and forget about spring week recruiting. I've landed one spring, but it doesn't convert. Can the OGs like @Pan European Monkey help me out or one of the experienced European based users on this site? 

 

Definitely springs, more experienced in the process now and it’s easier to land than SA. I got a 1 spring too in my first year (low tier BB) and this year landed 2 of the top banks. Keep pushing. + If you get committee positions and experience at Uni finance groups/funds you’ll be miles ahead of the first year kids who’ve just joined you’ll be competing with next year
