I worked in law for quite a few years prior to birth of ds 5 months ago. I was also doing a part-time law course over 4 years to become a legal executive.
However, since I have had ds I have actually lost all my get up and go to go back to work and have handed my notice in at my old job.
Anyway, long story cut short - I was in my last year of course and had only two modules to do. Had to sit exam 41 weeks preggers. I had my baby two days later. Thought I may as well do it to see how things panned out. I applied for special consideration (brings pass mark down to 35%). I got 35% exactly.
Apparently it has been refused by the board of examiners - they said pregnancy is not an illness, I could have opted not to sit the exam etc. I explained to them - hello, final furlong. They would have done the same.
Am I being unreasonable for thinking this decision is a rubbish one? Also, now if I don't sit the exams next June I will have to do the whole of the last two years at some point as the course changes. I am not ready to study again. What would you do re this aspect? In fact I have actually gone off the idea of working completely. I find it overrated compared to having children.
Please knock sense into me someone. I don't know what I am doing.
