Hello! I've just finished my English degree at Oxford, graduating with a First. I'm taking a year off before starting the PGDL at BPP (and then eventually joining Freshfields as a trainee solicitor). I've been living at home and working to save money for travelling, but I'd also like to...

Hi everyone, I’d really appreciate some advice as I feel stuck with my career options. I graduated with a law degree and for the past two years I’ve been working as a Case Officer at a healthcare regulator. I previously applied for training contracts, but quickly realised that even if I were...

Hello anybody who is reading this, I so wish I found this community earlier, it is so great to see everybody's inspiring journeys and motivations! For myself, I am wondering if i should join the journey as well or if it's just not right for me. My situation I am a recent LLB graduate. I did...

Hi everyone, I’m looking for some guidance on my career options and the best way forward. I originally live in Dubai but have been in the UK for 6 years now, completing my undergrad, LPC and paralegal job here. I graduated in 2022 with a training contract at an international law firm which...

I have a law degree from the UK and was able to secure a paralegal role at a high street firm whilst on my graduate visa. My visa, however, is due to expire in a few months and my current firm cannot sponsor me nor have I been able to find another role. So I am trying to weigh my options here...

Hi, I am a business undergraduate who is now completing the PGDL with ULaw. I have recently changed to the MA Law (SQE1) due to funding and so I am due to start the course for the SQE September 2025. I have been advised by my employability team that some firms do not take trainees if they have...

Hello all, I have a plagiarism case from uni 4 years ago and since then I have worked for 2 years at a law firm and I am due to start my TC end of this year after completing my SQE masters. I am able to provide a strong reference from my previous employer about my character as well as a few...

Hi all, i applied to the SQE programme 2025 in professional liability team, does anyone know how long it roughly takes for them to respond?

Hi all, please can you help me answer a potentially silly and obvious question but I cannot find the answer anywhere - IF (big if) I were to be successful for a training contract ( for example, Chance & Clifford etc), they say you have to have the PGDL and SQE finished before the Training...

Hi everyone, I recently graduated LLB with a 2:1 from a Russell Group university and am now preparing to self-fund my SQE preparation. I’m an international student on a graduate visa and have been accepted into the University of Law's LLM (SQE 1 & 2) Online programme, which starts this...

Hey everyone! a little bit about me - I'm an international student and graduated from a non-Russell group university in London (can you guess?) with high merit in LLB Law honours. My current stage is studying the LLM Legal Practice (SQE 1&2) starting this September, and I'm self-funding it. I...

Has anyone got a timetable of the part time course at ULAW for doing the LLM SQE 1 and 2? Just wondering how much work is required each week and the order of study.

Approximately how many hours per week do you have to spend studying independently for this course? Thanks in advance for any replies!

Hi everyone! I'm currently choosing from two options: — LLM SQE 1&2 or SQE 1&2 preparation courses: https://www.law.ac.uk/study/postgraduate/law/sqe-1-preparation-course/ https://www.law.ac.uk/study/postgraduate/law/sqe-2-preparation-course/ Do you know what is the difference between them...

Hi! I am currently a trainee solicitor and I have completed the SQE exams. Because of my previous experiences, I have enough qualifying work experience to send everything off now and ‘qualify’. However, I still want to complete my training contract for the experience. I just would like to have...

I'm sitting SQE2 in October. I have found a few good (paid) resources for revision notes, but I'm struggling to find many practice papers outside of a course. I'm self-funding so would rather save the money if I can. Does anyone have any practice resources they'd recommend please? Revise4Law...

I sat the SQE2 in January of this year and comparing my experience to others in my cohort, the assessment centre can make a big difference to your experience. I sat the assessments in London. My written exams were in ITTS - Aldgate East My oral exams were in - Royal College of General...

I am recent graduate of a Russell group university, scoring with a 2.1. I have taken a brief break and I am currently working in a different industry but I plan on starting the SQE in September or around that time frame. Unfortunately, I have not been successful with applications, nor would I be...

Hello :) I’m planning on enrolling to either Barbri or QLTS for their SQE prep course, intending to sit the July 2024 exam for SQE1. I work full time but I’m certain I can cram in 20 hours of studying over the course of the week. However, I just wanted some input from people about their...

Hello everyone. I've been scouring this forum for a couple of hours now and am therefore a bit embarrassed to post due to my query. However, for the most part this does seem like a safe space, so here goes: I graduated from UEA back in 2010 with a Ba (Hons) in Film & Media. My result was a 2:2...
