Hello! I did the SQE1 prep course with Barbri and I highly recommend this provider for your preparation. Even though it does not 100% replicate the structure of the actual SQE exam (particularly because Barbri uses plain English, and gives you smaller scenarios and shorter answers), this course really teaches you well how to understand, memorise and apply the law in any given situation. For example, I found the SQE1 FLK2 part extremely hard on the exam day and was not even sure whether I could get to the pass rate. But when the results came up, it turned out I did FLK2 even better than FLK1, which was definitely a surprise for me. But it just confirms that Barbri indeed prepares you well for the exam because on the day of the exam, you are familiar with the law that applies and the substance of the question, even though you may not be familiar with a structure or given scenario.

The only thing I would definitely emphasise is the importance of using all their materials when preparing in the same way how they tell you to use them. Generally, it starts with an overview of the practice area, lecture, MCQ, book and again MCQ + revision. The space repetition model definitely works well, especially in the way how Barbri presents it.
