idk if my report was correct but did yours just have random bars

like is there any text on yours

mine is literally just shapes i think something went wrong 😭
Omg that's so weird no mine definitely had writing on it 😭 Probably some extremely weird formatting error....but hopefully you can interpret the bars in some way for now?

I can PM you a screenshot of my results to help you interpret yours? The bars are applied verbal and numerical intellect!

Forage does some IP courses and I know that there are sometimes webinars on it that are sometimes advertised on linkedin. Other than that I have found that mentioning IP in relation to AI sometimes works and helps show an interest, I've talked about image rights as an artist it was something that I was passionate about.

my options are looking slim

im not sure if its worth funding just the sqe prep courses alone - id have to get a job and save up quick but even the job market is horrendous for standard labour jobs

sqe masters llm is a no go, cant use the loan there for religious reasons

options for a firm to fund me are slim as well rejection loves me right now

my back up that is becoming impossible too is paralegal, earn some money whilst getting some good experience and keep applying for tcs, thats slim too again because rejection loves me- i have an interview with accutrainee but i think they kind of just place you anywhere- if anyone has any experience here it would be good to know 😐


ive realised with me is that i cant sit around and do nothing, the break has been nice but its overdone now, i need something to do
