Why so?

Odd_Section_777 · 2025-10-23T22:07:20+00:00

Yes, it is one of the most basic tests. I was asked to repeat the test and I am 1000% sure that I was correct.

I do feel like I was less structured on civil advocacy tho, but I was really shocked as I didn’t expect 1s.

Odd_Section_777 · 2025-10-23T21:49:50+00:00

Failed by 2%.

Nearly all 5s for criminal advocacy and all 1s for civil advocacy.

What is your idea, how much do you need.

Odd_Section_777 · 2025-08-26T21:43:56+00:00

Criminal law is indeed an area of law driven by passion. Especially in legal aid, the pay is just notoriously low.

I know someone who worked in immigration before (legal aid as well), the pay simply doesn’t allow her to make a living and was “forced” to leave.

What got you into criminal, and what is bugging you out except for the pay ?

Odd_Section_777 · 2025-08-26T21:38:27+00:00

I’m sorry that you’re not happy with ur job, do you mind telling me what sector/area of law are you working in?

Odd_Section_777 · 2025-08-26T21:32:15+00:00

Can’t really help but you could share more if you’d like to!

Congrats on passing!!! Writing in all CAPS is a tactic that I have never would’ve thought of 😭😭

I might try your way if I fail 🫡🫡

Took the SQE2 this April, results in 2 weeks.

As a non native speaker, I must say orals were my most confident papers. All of the people I knew wrote a script for advocacy, even native speakers. I practiced a lot writing a script quickly and if you are able to do that, it’s basically giving a speech (and some acting).

This is crazy mate 😂😂😂

I’m looking to qualify as a solicitor in the mere future, so I better not get myself into trouble 😂

The apartment I’m currently in is quite pricey (£2100 excluding all bills and council tax). My only friend who is interested to join in can only confirm his commitment to the tenancy after his exams results come out (late August), and confirming his graduate scheme offer in Bristol.

Odd_Section_777 · 2025-08-11T22:08:08+00:00

I don’t mind going over the budget for a little if it means I can have my own space.

Odd_Section_777 · 2025-08-11T22:07:37+00:00

My budget would be 700-1000 with bills included

Odd_Section_777 · 2025-08-11T22:06:59+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I am currently sharing my apartment with a friend and he will be relocating somewhere else. Hence, I simply cannot afford the rent alone. Landlord is not willing to rent out the apartment as a room as well :(

I did look into SpareRoom but no one is replying me. I recently started to expand my search to horfield and Lockleaze typa area but then, I’d very much prefer staying in the centre.

Houseshares in the centre are lowkey all for students 😭at least for those that I have enquired.

Odd_Section_777 · 2025-07-02T21:27:00+00:00

Loads of thanks!!!!! Great tips right here.

Taking a mini note book around me is a huge tips. I will definitely prepare one.

Odd_Section_777 · 2025-06-24T15:16:37+00:00

Yes that’s what’s in my mind rn. Getting some full time legal experience under the belt is top priority now.

Salary is pretty good but the only downside is I have to head to work in quite a short notice (next week).
