I have some sample answers for EU, Tort Contract or Criminal or exam papers/reports to swap. If you can help me understand EU law i will sell you my soul honestly

MEQRs are basically just a restriction that makes free movement more difficult and it has to be justified? I get what you mean though FMOG is kinda split into different sections. That was the last q I answered and I ran out of time and got 60 so it's probably the least harshly marked paper so don't worry too much! 2 of my other qs were all over the gaf in that exam too lol. I actually no longer have my notes but if you want to dm me qs I'll try answer!

I am in the same position as a lot of you, in that I got 32% in an exam that I was positive that I had passed, and was confident of having done well in. Company was actually my last FE1, and I am familiar enough with these exams to know what it is needed to pass. At this point, I am beyond angry with the Law Society and their total ineptitude. As someone mentioned earlier, if they cannot handle the monopoly, they should not have it. It is very clear that their system is intensely flawed, and it is the FE1 candidates that are suffering, both mentally and financially. I feel that we all need to really come together on this Company law issue (and possibly Equity too, from reading the comments), as it is clear that there is something very wrong here. I have requested my paper under GDPR and I am going to write an email to every single email address I can find that is associated with the FE1 section and lay out all my grievances. I would encourage anyone else who is feeling the same level of frustration and confusion to do the same thing! The only way to deal with this crowd of incompetents is to flood them with requests, and make it too difficult to ignore. I'm not sure if there is something to be said for maybe putting together a sample email and allowing people to simply type their names at the end and send it off? Its the same idea as a petition, but possibly harder to ignore if their email inboxes are getting flooded with the same email from different people, as opposed to one petition that they can simply stick in a spam folder?

Sesh0nm0m wrote: » Company and equity were the two I failed as well! I failed company horribly scoring in the 20s when I thought I passed and came out happy.. Like you I'm comfortable enough with these and have passed 4. I was wondering did you pass your other 7 on the first try? Also did you ever hear of this happening in previous sittings? It seems that there was a lot of failure in every subject except EU and criminal which I didn't hear an overwhelming amount about. Honestly at a loss for what I'm gonna do now. I don't understand company law and was so happy we got a nice paper and I would have mentally prepared to repeat if I thought I failed in November because you usually know on the day. There is some level of bs going on here and my emails have been ignored and I was completely fobbed off on the phone. I know they've prob been bombarded but they need to maybe write one email and send it to everyone who sat FE1s in November and people who didn't fail any can ignore it. This is insanity.

IgoPAP wrote: » Does anybody think 70% of candidates that sat Property passed it this sitting? Because that's the average pass rate from previous years. I certainly don't think so, not even close, judging from this thread. If not, it means they decided to mark the exams harder during the Pandemic. The level of callousness required to pull this of is hard to contemplate.
Lallers96 wrote: » Well, not to sound rude, but I think people who passed subjects are less likely to say so especially when there is unfortunately a lot of unhappy people who didn't pass. People are more likely to speak of a negative rather than a positive, or maybe I'm wrong on that but that's my observation. I got 55 in Property, answered 5 questions quite well I thought. The only 1 that threw me off was the Adverse Possession problem Q with the mistake in the year allowing a dead man to arrive at his old site for a visit.

TCPIP wrote: » Hello all. I was thinking a while back about how the Law Society is incredibly vague on actual data that pertains to the results of the exams such as pass rates and average results so I wanted to try and compile my own data set. Obviously, if I just use my own results it won't be much of a sample so I created a Google form in the hope some other people might be willing to share their results. You can find it below: This form is totally anonymous and I cannot see any data beyond the result a person submits. I am hopeful that if I got about a hundred replies per subject it would be a decent sample and probably give us an indication of the curve that each subject uses. The results of the survey will be shared on my own website and I'll obviously share them here when that happens. I would also appreciate it if this could be shared in any Facebook groups, group chats, or just with other people who sat the exams in November to try and get as many replies as possible. If you have any questions just lemme know!
