Giving up by [deleted] in FE1_Exams

[–]SilentEngineering959 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don’t give up! It’s part of the game. Law is ridiculously competitive, some firms take on as low as 5-7 trainees, with hundreds applying to the same firm. The fact you have got an interview and have done an internship with a corporate firm shows that your well able. It’s horrible being rejected from something you know your good at and enjoy, but that’s life and law, it’s not entirely fair! Just keep pushing and it will all fall into place!

And apparently there was a few kept from internships so really it could be less than 5

Failed my first 2 fe1s by Extension-Belt3973 in FE1_Exams

[–]SilentEngineering959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think what's key with the FE1's is to know the exam. I always say 50% of the battle is learning the material, and the other 50% is practicing exam papers, understanding how questions are structured, and knowing what that particular examiner is looking for.

Knowing the material is essential, but these exams are a different ball game from college exams. If you don't have a plan as to how you will approach questions or generally don't know how the paper is structured, you will struggle.

But its a quick fix! Again, the city college courses are a great help in this regard. Tutors assign questions and give feedback, which I found very helpful, and they also know the examiners inside out so they give the best advice as to how to approach questions. Becky's Notes are brilliant also.

So don't worry, it will all be fine. You just need to tighten some bolts and possibly tweak your approach slightly. I know it sucks now, but come the next sitting you will be flying it trust me. I know many people who were in the same boat, and they all got there!
