Why is it so hard to pass part A, just feel like I will never be able to pass that particular subject even though I passed the rest

Don't think it's possible. Even the most cui NUS grad > valedictorian of SIM.
There's a reason why the OP of the SIM UOL salary thread is appropriately titled 'poorman'

1. Choose the correct spouse (if you must in law school and if no, then part b). The wrong spouse you choose can set your career back by 5 years because of the multiple cascading effects after that. There are many brilliant people who would have made partner already but because of breakups and career detours as a result, they end up worse off when on paper they should have been someone much better on a per Pqe basis.
2. Choose the correct law firm to go into. Going for the firm that pays the most $$$ is often not the best choice. You need to find a firm that values you individually.
3. No one is your friend in law. Humans are jealous people. The sooner you know that the better.

Thank you for sharing. Mind if you elaborate a bit more on point 1? how did / does the spouse affect?
any personal tips ? haha

not OP but i think it's ultimately a profession -- so gotta base it on the individual partners, not necessarily the firm?

You left out suss.
There’s a good proportion of local unis entering big four as trainees.
I would say 60-70%.
