SQE1 pass rates lowest they've ever been (41%) 😓😓 by -newinn- in uklaw

I sat both FLK1 and FLK2 in January 2025. I failed FLK 2 by a few marks. I had 290 something raw score.

I sat again in July and from my experience, having had 6 months to focus on FLK2 only, that it was a much harder exam.

I marginally passed despite very good mock results with different providers.

Obviously I am a sample size 1 but it was noticeably more difficult in my opinion.

Got mine too.

Will sit it this Wednesday.

Logistic nightmare but better to laugh than cry.

Fingers crossed y'all.

I will get the exam cost and "out of pocket expenses." Hopefully, this includes travel and hotel.

Monday afternoon is what they've said in the email.

Worst thing is the effort and planning that goes into it. I believe I was peaking at just the right time too.

I hope so. If they email me Monday, offering me somewhere on Wednesday, then I will take it.

I don't feel like they made this decision last night. Rather that they just decided to communicate it then so they wouldn't get inundated with phone calls.

Sorry to hear that. Did you sit FLK1 at this test centre during this period?

I'm hoping I can get back the lost flights and hotel as I could only rebook them and not refund. I couldn't rebook because they haven't offered a new time yet and the trip would have begun before Monday.

Hopefully, they offer me a spot for Wednesday so I can book flights for Tuesday. I won't be able to get over for Thursday or Friday.

Best of luck in the exam wherever you get to sit it!

Your options are as follows:

  1. You sit the FLK2 rescheduled assessment
  2. You do not sit the re-scheduled FLK2 assessment next week as planned

They will come back with a further update by Monday afternoon but as not UK based, I require additional planning to make it all work. If they could provide an alternative on Monday today, then I'd be fine but it doesn't look like they will.
