This really is the best SQE course out there! The SQE preparation course is the most comprehensive course in this area that I have come across. It is very user-friendly and really easy to navigate to each section. There is over a 1,000 extremely helpful videos that make even the hardest areas easier to understand. Moreover, there are lots of really helpful diagrams which break everything down and allow you to visualise concepts. The notes on this SQE preparation course are really detailed and helpful. I have lots of friends who need to do the SQE exams and I will be telling all of them to use this course to pass the exam. It really is amazing and the best I have come across!

I was paying for all the courses myself, so I was specifically looking for something cost-effective. Future Solicitor fit the bill perfectly.

Oliver came to the SQE2 with several years of paralegal experience. While he had the practical background, he recognised that understanding exam technique was key. “The way they like to see things in a certain exam format — it was helpful to get templates and see how to solve a specific assessment.

For him, the most value came from the written assessments. “What I would do is look at the mock question, write my own answer, then compare it to the model answer. That was an efficient way to learn how to structure responses properly.

He also appreciated the flexibility of the materials. “I liked the video discussions — I used to listen to them on the train. Especially for the oral part, that helped.

Reflecting on his experience, Oliver said: “The quality of the mocks and answers was really good. That’s the key if you want to do well on the SQE2 — get the method down.

Having passed the exam and moved straight into practice, he summed it up simply: “I’m very pleased. I wouldn’t have passed without it.
