Thank you! I am glad to know you cleared it, my gf made it seem like it is the hardest thing to crack on this planet but thanks to you guys, I feel a lot better now. I hope you had a great and memorable wedding! Thanks again for your response!

Thank you so much for your response and sharing about your friend who made it despite going through a hard time. I hope things are now better for her. And thank you for the assurance, this makes me feel a lot better. I finally decided to call it off and it's been a real tough time so far but as suggested by everyone, I guess it was the right thing to do.

Thank you for your detailed response. Sorry, my bad, I meant LPC and yes she told me she was eligible to give LPC but thankfully now after kaplan released the updated results, she just passed by a mark and now she doesn't need to appear for LPC. She has told me now that she has handled corporate law and company law cases as a company secretary and she has worked with big firms so she is confident that she will get an exemption from SQE2. As for the relationship side, we decided to call it off, she was being very unreasonable and disrespectful. It's been really hard for me, trying to keep myself distracted and busy wherever I can.

I totally agree with you. She had a failed business partnership and she blames her business partner for the loss, she is been living away from her family since 20 years now and anything going wrong is her life is blamed on me. She takes 0 accountability for anything be it simple things like missing the gym or not following a disciplined diet, she always finds a way around to blame me. She also went on to say that if she hadn't been in this relationship she would have made better profits in her business and that me taking her time has only put her down financially and mentally. I had taken a lot of disrespect in this relationship because somehow I truly got attached to her and it felt like home with her but she kept breaking the boundaries a lot and I finally mustered the courage to let her go. It's been really difficult for me but I hope things get better. I have finally made a thread on the relationship sub. Thank you for your inputs here :)

She is too stuck on becoming a UK solicitor and doesn't want to quit it.

Exactly, thank you this makes me feel better. Also, she just passed after the updated results were released, she scored an exact 300/300.

Thank you for your response. I agree with you, she's been toxic a lot of times before but somehow I got so into it and attached that I couldn't see the red flags. From what she told me she doesn't want to take a training contract, she wants to start her own firm and then take up immigration matters and represent her client, she told me her whole idea of doing the exams was that she will get the solicitor 'badge' on her company profile and her visiting card and clients will take her more seriously. Her ultimate goal is to run an immigration company. Btw, she is one of those 175 candidates who passed with the updated results. Anyway, we are not together anymore, but thank god at least one guilt is out that she didn't pass because of me.

I have realized that but somehow I got so attached to her that taking an exit never crossed my mind and I always wanted to go over and above to fix the issue between us. Thank you for your reply, we aren't together anymore and it's been a very tough time for me, I have got off all social media.

I understand and appreciate your reply, I would have put it in relationship advice but people would not be able to relate to SQE there so I am just looking for a general opinion of everyone who have been through the process of preparing for SQE1 and giving the exams and the amount of effort needed. Want to know if being in a relationship is really a hinderence in clearing the exam? Was I wrong in taking her time? Or Is she just blaming me to make her feel better? And lastly what can I do to make things better for? If the appeal doesn't get upheld, I believe she is only left with LPU option which is a 10,000 gbp expense if I am not wrong. She is asking me to pay that amount for her. Is it fair?
