    Does doing LLB over 6 years (because of failing) have an impact in future prospects?
    Final avarage of 68%

      Definitely! Can’t find a job here because of that. They don’t even care to ask the reasons for your underperformance.

      @HRHSiyathokozaMweli Appreciated. Any advice for someone in this position to salvage themselves or at least find a legal career outside being an attorney or advocate.

      @@sandilek4349 marks get you through the door bro, do other things that’ll help show that you are really a good legal practitioner. I think I should stop here and ask why couldn’t you make it in the set 4 years?
      But further your education by getting an LLM, or PGDip in Law or PGCert in Law, but more than anything, try to get as much experience as you can possibly can. This may mean slaving away a few weeks and months for close to nothing. Remember, you’re more than your marks.

      @@HRHSiyathokozaMweli In all honesty it was bad time management and underestimating the amount of studying required.
      The excuses that help me sleep at night are that I work full-time at a bank in sales and it's exhausting. There are evenings where I'd open my book only to wake up hours later sleeping on the book.
      Thanks for the responses, I will make it work one way or the other.

      @ we’re all in this together, don’t let up here. If I get on, I’ll definitely hit you up bro. I promise.
