Hi, does anyone have any experience with the SQE answered revision books, really enjoyed the LLB answered during my undergrad and they were my primary source of revision, was wondering if the SQE ones are detailed enough to be a main source for revision?
Thanks!

Hey @p2bv ,

There are many views on which sources to use to study for the SQE. In my own personal opinion, I'd say use whatever works for you, ensuring that whatever source you use corresponds with the requirements of the exam syllabus. You can cross-reference this yourself. I also personally believe in reading a few resources very well and extensively, as opposed to spreading yourself trying to cover different sources, which could result in limited retention of key legal principles. However, again, every source has its benefits and pros, so definitely go with what aligns with your preferences!

Hi! I’ve just started my SQE at BPP and I’d say the Revise SQE books are amazing! I’ve been using them myself and they also have great reviews from everyone I speak to. That said, I completely echo what Amma mentioned — the most important thing is to use whatever works best for you, while making sure your revision materials align with the SRA syllabus requirements.
