Yeah, company seems to be a bit of a wildcard this year. A suprising number of people I know failed it, and those who passed were just 50 on the dot. Genuinely, though that they'd be basically be passing anybody who sat the exams and half-knew the content, given the circumstances.

I'm curious if a large number of people were cheating, having been able to use the Act (maybe notes inside or something). And marking it harder was to combat this. I really don't know. I hope not as well, cause it would be real **** for the rest of us. (But also, EU has open book.. but at the same time a different examiner). So shellshocked at this result. It was definitely my best.. the fact I got 36 when I studied for so long and even had a book in front of me makes no sense.

My equity result makes absolutely no sense to me. When will I get my recheck result? Will it even be before the March sitting?

i dont know tbh, im in the same boat but with company and tort, from looking at boards post exam i pulled out everything and had the same cases but still failed. i doubt it ,wouldnt expect it any time soon.

Thanks.

Well based on the numbers so far it will be because the response is astounding.

I got 44 Constitutional. My third time failing it and I thought the exan went really well for me so it doesn't make sense at all. Its hit and miss with the rechecks but if you have the money to do them then go for it

Would there be enough time between rechecks and the next sitting to know whether you need to resit or not? I hate the idea of shelling out money for a recheck, then not getting the results in time, and then resitting, to find out I've gone up to a pass and I wasted time and energy studying for the subject when I didn't have to.

Wondering the same. If I have to resit, I'd rather do it asap. Would love to see the script before even applying for recheck but seems like there's zero chance of that before the recheck deadline.

I was waiting ages the last sitting! Sat Tort in August, applied to see my script as I thought I did a lot better. Got 37... too low to get a re check I think. Was so long waiting I missed the application deadline for November for tort.

After seeing your script, did you feel ~7 marks per question was fair?

God the more I read about previous sittings and the rechecks, etc. make me really reconsider wanting to be a solicitor with the way the Law Society has been arsing around

Honestly this is so true- I know myself my mother was badly sick with Covid and then 3 weeks before the exams I lost a close friend to suicide, this pandemic is so hard as it is and the law society couldn’t give a damn about how we’re struggling or trying to assist us.

Definitely, one of my parents is sick with cancer, and my family split up coming into the November sitting so stressed has been my middle name, makes everything more bitter today...

Do they not know we are all in the middle of a pandemic? Id say a lot of candidates have had family members that have become sick and some have died. some people are struggling financially. I emailed the law society 10 weeks ago with some circumstances that I felt impacted my exams and they didnt reply...

A friend of mine got 47 in Company a few sittings back, got a recheck and ended up being brought up to 55. Just saying probably worth shelling out for the recheck if your close.

failed equity by 5% which I studied for for months and managed to pass constitutional after only starting it a month before the exams :S the mind boggles...

I failed Equity the first time pretty badly and than having 7 months to study for the resit I only just passed getting 50. Equity was by far the hardest.
