    I've been looking for an overall pass rate for the FE1 exams. Does anyone know the percentage of passes and fails every time round? Any help is much appreciated.

    I'm not actually sure if the law society publish info like this. I know myself I'm always looking for stats etc to quantify my chances of passing/failing whatever I'm doing - but maybe in the case of the fe-1s one is better off not knowing the stats! ;)

    Certainly, when I finished doing the FE-1's well over 2 years ago, the pass rates were generally 50-55%. You would often see comments in the Examiner Reports saying that out of X no of candidates Y passed (invariably within the range outlined above) and a comment saying that it was broadly in line with other subjects that sitting, etc.

    Thanks for the info. I figured the numbers would be around the 50% mark.

    I read somewhere that the hardest bar to pass in the world is the Bar of Japan. Listen to this for a scary figure, only 3% of applicants a year pass the exam!
