SQE1 Prep
Prepare with BARBRI, the experts in multiple-choice legal licensing exams.
SQE Prep by BARBRI courses for the SQE1 are offered twice a year leading into the scheduled examinations. SQE1 is a computer-based exam testing your functioning legal knowledge by way of multiple-choice questions – a specific skill that requires practice and expertise.
The flexible full-time 10-week course is recommended for recent law graduates. Alternatively, there are also two part-time options offered. The 20-week course option is recommended for law or non-law graduates, who are able to commit to a faster part-time duration. The 40-week course is the most flexible option, recommended for non-law graduates or foreign-qualified lawyers, as it is the longest duration of study.

Key features
Your tailored, flexible online BARBRI Personal Study Plan (PSP) guides every assignment and activity throughout your entire BARBRI SQE1 Prep course through an integrated Active Adaptive Legal Learning process.
Video lectures, workbooks and practice questions build knowledge over time to create a highly effective SQE1 Prep experience. For both online home study and blended classroom courses, your PSP delivers the right combination of substance and skills on a flexible schedule. All materials are recorded and available online through your PSP.
BARBRI SQE 1 Prep has the best faculty in exam preparation, consisting of experienced English solicitors and barristers who teach you the substantive law for each subject.
The teaching materials and workshops are wholly examination-driven. They are carefully crafted to convey what you need to know in each subject. Materials are recorded and available to each candidate online throughout the programme.
BARBRI has more than 50-years’ experience in training candidates to master multiple-choice exam question techniques and skills.
During your SQE1 Prep course, you will practice thousands of multiple-choice questions to master the techniques and outcomes tested on the SQE1 exam. Learning and practice question sets build in difficulty over time and utilise spaced repetition to boost learning and retention.
All SQE Prep students will be assigned an individual, personal mentor. Your mentor, a qualified solicitor, is your personal coach throughout your exam preparation.
He or she will schedule personal, bi-weekly check-ins or meetings to see how you are progressing with your studies as well as conduct livestream workshops, provide tips, and help you with any problem areas including customising your course if necessary.
Prior to the commencement of the SQE1 prep course, each candidate is supplied with a full set of printed materials for their studies. These bespoke workbooks are written exclusively by our expert tutors for the subjects examined in the SQE1.
ISAAC is the engine that runs your BARBRI prep course and gives it flexibility and personal touch to your individual learning pace, while maintaining your focus on the key areas of study. As you go through your course, ISAAC picks up on your progress, recalibrates and assigns you the most important and helpful material to guarantee your SQE success.
