honestly, tell me please, is anybody else going stir crazy waiting for these results? I am both excited and terrified in equal measure. I know I am driving myself mad, I keep looking at the papers over and over, even though I attempted 5 qs in every one of the 5 subjects that I took, I just don't think I'll get them all. It's really a headwreck. I am meant to be starting training contract next month up with one of the big 5 firms and I've already sent in my indentures application for Blackhall for Sept, but I just can't shake the feeling that I am going to be disappointed and have to go back to my firm and ask to defer a year.
Last time around, i thought constitutional was fine, not amazing but I thought I did enough to pass, i got 48 when results came out and 49 on a recheck. It's a killer to come so close. I don't think I did really badly in any of them, but I have this horrible feeling that I'm going to be really close to the line on one. Maybe it's just because I was burned last time.
I didn't feel any better about constitutional law this time around- attempted 5 questions again- thought it was ok. I only got 4 and a half done in property but the first succession question will be the difference between a pass and fail for me I think. Equity was grand, 5 solid questions and I am confident of passing that, and I think EU was ok too, I did have to do the casenote q as my fourth q because institutions and FMOG were no shows in the paper but he is meant to be a nice enough marker I think. Contract is probably the one I am most depressed about- I just didn't feel sharp on the day, everything seemed kind of blurry, I forgot some cases and ran out of time and I know she is an incredibly hard marker. What I wouldn't give now just to get 50 on the nose in every exam, I would be beyond delighted, I would literally start househunting straight away.
I just said I'd drop a little post and get it off my chest because my parents and my boyfriend don't understand that these exams are monsters and it's hard to tell.
It's gonna be a long few days i think
Best of luck to everybody, hope I am not the only one fretting! 0 -

I know the feeling....In the same position as you, sat 5 and have my TC lined up and ready to go..the wait is the worst. Lets hope the rebel luck is on our side eh! Best of luck.....it's a tough road and all of us have put in the work deserve a good result!0 -
Sat my first 4 in March, don't have a TC lined up or anything. Seeing as it was my first attempt I won't be as annoyed if I don't get them, I'd say it is so frustrating to get 2/4 and then fail one by a few per cent.
Anyway I'm not feeling too confident, for each exam I got very unlucky with the topics that came up and I remember that I would do one really good answer, then 2 good-ish one's and then 2 awful ones. Each exam seemed to be like that with some a little worse or better than others.
Anyway I'm not too confident, but I am hopeful, if I did fail I don't think it will be by much, and if I did pass then it certainly won't be by much either.
The way I see it is it was my first attempt and I'm not under pressure with a TC etc. so I can just tackle them again in October and seeing as I have the bulk of work done for 4 subjects then I might add in a fifth and this could give me a better chance of getting the first three passed.
thats the exact way i feel about mine, i good 2 middling and 2 awful but i go 2/4 in the last sittings but i am worries this time around il do the same:(:( 0 -

If you just click on forgot password, then enter the email address you provided or your ID number they'll send you on a new password and you can access that way and then change the password to whatever you want.0 -
