Failed Barrister in June. Trying to work out what to actually change.

Results came back and I did not pass. Barrister, first attempt, and from what I can tell I was a few percent off.

I am not really here for sympathy, I am here because I do not want to repeat the same four months. Things I already know I did badly:

  • Read the materials cover to cover twice and did almost no practice questions until the last fortnight
  • Index was enormous and I could not find anything in it under time
  • Never once did a full sitting in one go

If you passed on a rewrite, what did you actually change. Trying to build the November plan out of real advice rather than vibes.

That is the bit I keep hearing and keep resisting. Doing questions before I have read properly feels like I am cheating myself out of the learning.
