I sit down with Thomas, who sat for the April 2026 ZIALE examinations. In a raw and honest conversation, he shares how he felt after the release of the results, admitting that he had come to see ZIALE as everything and at one point, viewed his LLB as useless without it. He reflects on that mindset and encourages aspiring lawyers to seek mentorship, think outside the box and recognize that there are opportunities beyond ZIALE.
