[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 76469, member: 2672"] Firms will apply mitigating circumstances to people who fail. So if you were ill, you’d most likely defer your exams and so you did them when you were better. But yes, firms will enforce this. I had to create agreements in my time where people were paying back £300 a month for 8-9 years (and that was sometime ago when fees/maintenance was lower). Law school isn’t cheap. It may seem hostile, but at the same time a firm paying out £40-45k worth of tuition/maintenance for someone they can’t employ when they need to is also exceptionally generous. [/QUOTE]
