Should I pay for SQE 1 and 2 together.

[LillyandSilver]

Basically i am thinking of going with Barbri for SQE 1. On the barbri website I can just apply to SQE 1 but on the Central Applications Board it says I can also for a slight reduction apply for both courses. Is it worth it? I am not sure if Barbri is the best for SQE 2 and was thinking that I would much rather use ULaw for SQE 2, which my employer is willing to pay for (Only SQE 2). Is this possible and should I do it?

BARBRI tend to apply a discount to SQE2 if you have done SQE1 with them anyway, so it maybe the case that the reduction factors this in upfront but that you could still get this if you sign up to SQE2 at a later date (check with BARBRI though).

Yes, you can use Barbri for SQE 1 and ULaw for SQE 2. There's no rule that says you have to use the same provider for both exams. In fact, some people prefer to mix and match providers toget the best fit for their learning style and needs.

It may be worth it to take a look here: https://fqps.co.uk/compare-fqps-vs-barbri
