[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 232818, member: 42112"] Hey! I totally get what you mean, as I was always puzzled at the concept of providers not teaching the black letter law, especially considering it makes up half the exam. I can't even find my Contract Law notes from first-year undergrad, and I completed that 4 years ago - I can't imagine 12 years! Just to offer my experience with my course provider (as someone sitting SQE1 this month), I am with the College of Legal Practice and they provide material for all of the black letter law and have separate seminars for these topics. Whilst I didn't necessarily get to choose my provider (as it is the one my firm uses), I was really grateful that they went back over this stuff as it can be difficult to recall after so much time! Whilst I can't comment on other providers such as ULaw or BPP (and I'm sure others may be able to offer some insights), there are definitely providers out there (like COLP) that do go over the black letter law if that is something that is important to you. Best of luck with your decision, and with the SQE prep! :) [/QUOTE]
