Hi @Jessica Booker , I really appreciate your many excellent reply about SQE as they are really helpful. I am wondering whether I can ask you some further questions about SQE? I am an international student and now graduated and applying for TC. In order to improve my competitive in applying I plan to take the SQE through self-education. And now the exam is coming really close but I don’t think I am well-prepared enough for it. It’s possible for me to have to resit the exam or get pass with a low score. Hence I am wondering whether it would or to what extend it would have an adverse impact on my following application. I will sincerely appreciate it if I can get your opinion replied to this post. Thank you so much in advance.

Could you not delay the sitting?

I don’t think getting a low score will be an issue, but I think failing on your first sitting could be for some firms.
