    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...

    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.

    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.

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

    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

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

    I've completed the form but I ask that you share your results publicly, regardless of the sample size.

    Thanks.

    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 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

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

    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.

    42 in Company, which although I feel didn’t go as well as my other exams, which I thankfully passed, I still feel it was marked a small bit harsh. For anyone who’s had company rechecked in the past but felt it was a long shot, how did you get on?

    Totally not!!! But it’s a matter of opinion! I was waiting a long time. I was hoping once I saw my script again, I’d feel comfortable to apply for a recheck based on my answers but by the time I got my script, recheck and application deadlines had passed so just got on with it. And November tort paper seemed like something I would have done well in judging by the paper!

    Yes wondering if it's just easier to resit seeing as it's €10 more expensive to have a recheck rather than sit the exam. I'm terrible with in-person exams and my anxiety goes through the roof so I never perform well, so I've preferred the online system in that I can do it from home in a familiar setting, but I have too many to sit this March that it's better I push some to next September but I would really rather they still be online, so I'm in a Catch-22 situation
