For my first 3 exams, I literally just pawned off 2nd hand notes off of a friend, memorised the notes 2 weeks before the exams, and somehow managed to pass all of them. I'm sure my bad habits will get to me eventually.

For my first 4 exams I pad 300euro each on a professional course and 90 euro a subject on grinds, I also bought all the nutshells. I got none of that back, but I don't feel that it was wasted money - I spent what I needed to in order to pass. For the second set I used my materials to swap for materials for the new four and ended up spending next to nothing on the next set. You might do better trying to swap materials than sell photocopied manuals as people are giving away materials for free on here - just some friendly advice

Turns out they were photocopies. I know this now because I'm being reported when trying to sell them on Gumtree . They're in good condition, with ring binders and a laminate cover. Tort, Constitutional, EU and Company. They're not lacking in any way as they just got me 4 passes. Paid €40 each for them so would feel a bit crap if I couldn't get anything back. Again, not sure if this is allowed but if anyone is interested DM me.

fe12021 wrote: » oh yeah, i think they email the application form once you send the email requesting the recheck, and then when you submit that you get the payment details. i'd forward you the form to speed up the process but i've just looked at it and it says november 2020 on it.

fe12021 wrote: » said this above but: results for nov 2020 came out on 14 jan and recheck results came out on 19 feb. from boards, it sounded like more people got rechecks last time, so it may be quicker this time
