Liam

Absolutely fantastic, very well condensed! Colour highlighted notes were extremely helpful and the structure of the lectures/modules are well executed and easy to understand. The diagrams are the cherry on top for an SQE preparation course. It wasn’t like opening up a law text book and getting drenched in cases.
