You just have to be militant with your time. Curiously, I heard that 2 of A&G's trainees failed ACP in 2017.

What do those who’ve failed part A usually do during after?

Do you think it is necessary to take the Part A bar course? Future Part A student here, contemplating whether to take the optional course or not.

Depends on uni u come from.
Generally if you’re from Oxbridge, no need to do the course
If you’re from LSE, UCL, and below best to do the course
Singapore legal education standard is a lot higher than overseas.
A first from LSE, UCL is at most a high 2:1 in NUS.

Take the course. Apparently Walter Woon drops a lot of exam essentials in his lessons. I didn't take the course and if not for my friend who gave me the recordings, would've failed I think. WW is fond of insta-failing people once they fail to hit a crucial point.

Do not make the mistake of assuming part A is an academic course, especially for company law. He prefers practical answers and pre-mugged essays will not work. Neither will copying and pasting.
