    Gutted to have gotten 42 in both equity and property, not sure if it's worth a recheck or just resitting the exam seeing as they're both just as expensive and the other

    Anyone else only get results from one exam �� waiting on equity result...


  • Registered Users Posts: 43 michaelot97


    Seems there's a lot of people unhappy with equity. I thought it was the best of my 3 and passed the other 2 convincingly but failed it. How long do these rechecks take?


  • Registered Users Posts: 14 YcL


    I got 37 in company!!!, first and now only out of all 8 ive failed so shocked and annoyed, think its a disgrace if any are marked harshly due to what a **** show the whole thing was

    42 in equity here, considering a recheck - thought it went really well.


  • Registered Users Posts: 106 ✭✭illy.m


    These were my last 2, failed both Equity and Company got 43 and 30 for company. I was convinced that I passed. Answered all 5 questions. Had cases for all of them. I was pretty sure I was going to pass. 30 in company ffs like


  • Registered Users Posts: 72 ✭✭Law101


    Can’t believe I got 42 in Eu and 46 in tort. I thought I did really well? Are they worth a recheck? I literally thought I scored high on both!! wth?


  • Registered Users Posts: 169 ✭✭EmmaO94


    50 in Company & 53 in Equity so that's me at 6/8! Hope everyone's alright and if it didn't work out for you this morning then take a break today but don't give up - I feel like perseverance is this exam's worst enemy.

    did ANYONE pass company .. and if so, by more than the skin of the teeth?

    42 here as well and I even managed to quote Biehler, etc. Very disappointed, just trying to figure out how long the rechecks take

    I got 50 and I actually thought I failed it, I did 5 questions but my brain wasn't functioning properly that morning, I must have remembered more than I thought!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 343 ✭✭IgoPAP


    I'd be very curious to see the pass rates this sitting...


  • Registered Users Posts: 31 Dropin


    Somehow managed to get my passes and was half thinking of taking on Company 6 weeks out so that I sit 3 exams and get the whole thing finished, but seeing these results for Company is disturbing and giving me second thoughts. Seems like they must have been way too harsh. I find it hard to believe that so many people could think they passed and miss by that much. Hopefully the re checks bring you up.

    How did everyone do in constitutional? Got 43% wondering if its worth the re check

    I got 46 in property..I wish I just continued with the adverse possession question that had the mistake in it instead of doing a different one.

    Is 46 worth rechecking


  • Registered Users Posts: 79 ✭✭LS3


    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...


  • Registered Users Posts: 65 ✭✭fe12020oct


    is it worth getting a recheck this close to the march sitting? not sure whether to get equity rechecked or not bc thought i at least got a pass

    Same it is beyond ridiculous. I have sat this exam twice and keep getting failed by 2 or 3 marks and the comments from the examiner is like clutching at straws at this stage!!!

    I have passed all other 7 fe1s! Now this equity exam has stopped me applying for the hybrid for another year. :(

    I got 56% in company but thought I did way better! (Obviously just delighted to have passed it but just saying I was surprised at my result)! It seems to have been marked really hard!


  • Registered Users Posts: 27 Fitz_95


    45 also in Equity, passed the others, very disappointing as I’ve tried equity a few times now and I really thought I’d cracked it on this attempt


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 112 ✭✭Fe7


    What do you put in for the examination number on the recheck form?

    Where do we get bank details to transfer fee by EFT?

    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...

    I got 62 in company and i actually thought i did better if I’m being honest I was defo expecting higher. I honestly don’t want to sound like a little teachers pet here because I’m far from it lol I wasn’t working before the November sitting due to covid and was studying for about 2 months straight full time

    The form says they will reply to you with it once you send it in. Do you know what the examination number is meant to be?

    I'd been studying for 5 exams since June straight full-time. Still failed two.


  • Registered Users Posts: 74 ✭✭Lawlz


    Hi guys first time poster on this thread but first and foremost thanks to those providing support through this forum throughout the FE1s!

    Sat 4 in the November sitting passed two but got 43 in Equity and 41 in Constitutional. Marks for the other two are in the very low 50s. In previous written exams I got 60 or close to 60 in all.

    Seems like grading was low as I honestly cannot see much difference between the type of answers in the two sittings.

    Can anyone provide some info on the recheck process? Mainly how long it generally takes? And if 41 and 43 would be worth checking.

    Thanks!

    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.


  • Registered Users Posts: 106 ✭✭illy.m


    can someone who passed company please request to see their script, and share so that I can compare & know the standard for March sitting. I would very much appreciate!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 99 ✭✭Lealaw

    Logged mine there, it would be great to see


  • Registered Users Posts: 46 BugsySiegel


    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.

    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...
