[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 118972, member: 2672"] I think you have to take comparing pass percentages with a pinch of salt. For the LPC, you have to complete a full academic course as part of the process to sit the assessments. Technically, that course should prepare you for the assessments, although as referenced above, it still only has just over a 50% chance of passing. In contrast, anyone with a degree or degree level qualification can sit the SQE. I could go and sit it if I wanted to, having not studied law and have not completed any form of prep course. People think this won't really happen or the numbers for it will be particularly small, but reality is there will be a significant proportion of people who sit SQE1/2 having studied for far less than 7 months and also potentially much more privately tutored or even self-taught. You saw this with the QLTS system (the way that international qualified lawyers used to be able to cross qualify into England and Wales), which the SQE is very much based on. [/QUOTE]
