The gap between first and second attempts is typically significant \u2014 not because you get smarter, but because you&#8217;re no longer surprised. You know the format, you know how the time pressure feels, and you&#8217;ve (hopefully) prepared more seriously. Additionally, a second year often brings new bonus point opportunities: a voluntary service year, a stay abroad, or additional work experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-white-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-b17e08c6219dd71d30ede9288800f0c1\" style=\"border-radius:40px;background-color:#2e5077\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_If_I_couldnt_attend_the_Leuphana_selection_day_due_to_illness\"><\/span>What If I couldn&#8217;t attend the Leuphana selection day due to illness?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-tertiary-color has-text-color\" style=\"font-size:14px\">Leuphana makes provision for health-related absences.
