I found the Future Solicitor to be incredibly easy to use and extremely useful. The way the material was broken down into single points of the specification, accompanied by clear explanations and helpful diagrams, made it easy to engage with and remember. It was exactly what I needed and allowed me to cover more ground in my studies. I truly believe that traditional institutions will have to move towards this model of teaching to effectively prepare students for the SQE.

How Emma Passed SQE1 in the first quintile (July 2024) testimonial

I was super happy! I passed in the first quintile. On both papers I got over 70%. The beauty of what you are offering is that you explain things really well and they are really complex legal concepts that you can break down…

This is an excellent resource for SQE preparation, offering over abundant videos, mock exams, diagrams, and clear notes. Personally, it greatly helped me pass the SQE, with insightful content and confidence-boosting mock exams. I highly recommend it for SQE candidates. The course simplified complex legal concepts, and the experienced instructor provides on-screen legal text, using real court cases for illustration. The option to pause and review content was really helpful. Overall, it’s a concise, accessible, and highly recommended resource for SQE success.

I highly recommend it!
