[QUOTE="LillyandSilver, post: 187479, member: 31510"] Thank you so much and good luck to your family members too! Please do. Although I tend to err on the side of the dramatic, I hope this will give a somewhat accurate depiction of what SQE students are going through at the moment. I appreciate that the SRA has attempted this year to improve on the complaints last year and is trying to accommodate thousands of students so we can't all get our first pick of seats, I am also lucky enough that if I can't change it I am in a position to still attend because it is just the next city over. Has it been a seamless system? No, but it appears better than what it was. Regarding the content, it is not hard per se but it is a lot. Also, there are lots of students online saying that you have to study 40/50 hours a week and that if you don't get over 70% on the practice tests you are going to fail which just adds to the stress. I don't know if my standards were set so low because of all the horror stories I read about beforehand but at the moment I think it is somewhat doable without working yourself to the bone and burning yourself out. I am trying to be kinder to myself on this front. Of course, I might not say that after the exam but who knows? [/QUOTE]
