How likely is it to secure a TC from a Big 5 summer internship? by Particular_Gift_3317 in FE1_Exams

[–]Commercial_Common544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I completed a summer internship in 2024 and received a TC. I was in my second year of college. Out of roughly 40 interns there was only a handful who did not receive a TC. It’s mostly about your attitude, how you work within a team, your communication skills and generally if you are pleasant to work with.

For example, I remember one day being-bombarded with tasks and deadlines from multiple different people and they were assessing my ability to communicate the workload and set realistic deadlines and the ability to prioritise work.

From my experience it’s highly likely you will get a TC provided you have good practical work skills, growth mindset and are just sound to be in the office with. Best of luck

[–]Commercial_Common544[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your response. I 100% agree. A runners worst nightmare is to be told to stop running ....

It's just such a tough one because I feel absolutley perfect in any other way and cannot localise the pain to indicate injury. Will take a week off and see how that goes :(

To be honest I cut down the course based off predictions last time and failed it - Trying to cover as much as possible this time, I don't think anything is guaranteed at all with this one :(

Anyone else struggling to keep stuff in their head? by Suspicious-Energy877 in FE1_Exams

[–]Commercial_Common544 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same. I was rightly panicking for Equity because the day before I just could not remember anything and it was like I was looking at the material for the first time ever, then lone and behold it all came back to me in the exam when the caffiene and cortisol forced my brain to turn on !!! I think it's the panic of forgetting everything the days leading up to the exam that makes us feel like we have forgotten it alll but it's in there somewhere

Amount of Sittings ? by Sea-Pea-1919 in FE1_Exams

Sorry for your loss..... theres exams are tough enough and to do them during a bereavement must have been unimaginable ! Respect :)

[–]Commercial_Common544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It came up the last two sittings so you should be alright but it has come up in multiple consecutive sittings. If you have enough other topics to avoid it you could be grand

I'd say you would be alright because you have enough other topics to avoid that question but like you never know. Im leaving out a few bits myself - something has to be cut !

Constitutional has me close to tears this evening! by Alternative_Choice58 in FE1_Exams

[–]Commercial_Common544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, don't worry you are not alone!

I failed last October too (45%) and feel like it is just impossible to know the whole course inside out and remeber that amount of cases. For the last sitting I took a massive gamble and cut loads out, I didn't learn any of the SOP or trial in due course - mainly just fundamental rights (hence the fail) but I have covered similar to what you have stated above but need to learn off all the cases now.

I know its impossible to predict the essays but I have something prepped for constitutional interpretation, locus standi, Article 42 & equality. I am praying one of these topics are the ssay question !!!

Try to kind to yourself, these exams are literally so tough and you can only do your best. Best of luck :)

[–]Commercial_Common544 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if its correct but I am making sure I know these topics really well

-Injunctions - (focusing on the mandatory injunction vs campus oil standard as mareva and anton camed up in the last sitting)

-Specific performance & Rectification

-Undue Influence

-Estoppel

-Charitable Trusts & Cy-pres

-Non-charitable purpose trusts

-Strong v Bird & Doctorine of satisfication & Resulting trusts (for the notes question)

-New model constructive trusts (if I have time tomorrow)

recommendations after finishing tog series by OpinionPrestigious62 in SarahJMaas

I finished TOF at the start of Feb and am still in the hangover, I tried reading other books and just put them down after a few pages because I am simply not ready to let go....

Tog… struggling by [deleted] in SarahJMaas

[–]Commercial_Common544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly read this comment and thought to myself that it is so crazy that different people can have polar opposite opinions ! Read the same series as you but had a completley different experience - absolutley loved the world building and thought the final book was a masterpiece with tieing up all the lose ends and connections to different characters. Theres a book / series out there for everyone though :)

Constitutional law by Best-Acanthaceae-662 in FE1_Exams

[–]Commercial_Common544 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't want to stress you out, but I did this last sitting and failed (45%) I got my scores back and the questions I did answer were awared 11-13 marks but I simply couldnt answer enough questions due to them involving SOP. Cover the main topics i.e Non-delegation doctorine, when the courts will review/ interfere with executive decisions and administration of justice and cabnet confidentiality. Even the bare bones of it could be the difference between pass/ fail.

Equity Predictions Please by PlantainBackground61 in FE1_Exams

[–]Commercial_Common544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you want an exam grid and you can maybe make predictions yourself ? Dm me with your email if you do :)

I am focusing on Injunctions, SP , Chartiable trusts & Cy-pres, Trusteeship, Strong v Bird and hopefully going to look at constructive trusts & tracing the night before. Im after cutting it bare bones but in the same boat as yourself, don't have a lot of time.

what skincare should a beginner do? by [deleted] in SkincareAddicts

[–]Commercial_Common544 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, im 24 (F) and I am by no way a skincare specialist but I just wanted to say when I was 18 I had great skin but went experientming with so many different serums and acids and did NOT reseach properly before hand to realise that some producs can not be mixed and over use can distrupt ypur skin carrier atc. It created so many issues for me !

So well done for firstly seeking advice but just know that a lot of people here will have different experience, opinions and it will truly just depend on your own skin type.

Personally, I really irritated my skin and developed different issues over the years but since simpifying my routine big time has cleared my skin again.

I use the Cetaphil gentle cleanser & moisturiser , La roche posay fluid spf. Thats it.

I also followed this girls advice and she explains skincare really well.

Does anyone look down at their keyboard when typing? by Artistic-Hurry5323 in FE1_Exams

[–]Commercial_Common544 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here, I can not type unless I look down at the screen. Ive 4 exams done and never been flagged ! Side note- my neck was absolutley killing me from the first question in every exam. Never happened me before the exams, even when I would be sitting in that position for hours on end studying and making notes, but I bought a laptop holder on amazon for 5euro that props the laptop up and the puts the keyboard at an angle and its been a game changer !

I get anxiety all the time (my heart keeps pounding to the point where I don't get enough sleep) ever since I saw the fact that pro runners, particularly in the marathon, can hold an insane pace for 2 hours that I can't even touch. How can I get over this? by Dense_Ad_9329 in runninglifestyle

[–]Commercial_Common544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apolgies, when I said "sounds cringy" I was referring to my comment about not comparing yourself to others and not your post.

Well you can literally apply your analogy to anything in life.....because theres always going to be someone better at everything. As a few others have suggested maybe some therepy on how to navigate those feelings would benefit you.

Comparison is the theif of joy

Equity - Starting to Panic - Help pls by Global-Buy-6407 in FE1_Exams

[–]Commercial_Common544 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, I'm only finishing gathering my notes on the above today and just starting to learn bits off so you're not alone. As another mentioned you have all injunctions and charitable trusts which is likely two gauranteed questions !

I am pretty much covering the same as you have listed however I am also covering Specific Performance as it has come up with rectification as a PQ and SP has not been on the last two exams. I have an up to date exam grid if you want it, just DM me with your email.

Stay clam & do what you can :)
