Sqe Barbri exam prep

Hello! How much is this course? Also is it online and just for SQE1? Am I right that SQE1 consists of two exams?
Hi @Sammy Watkins - how are you finding the 10 week course? Are you studying with the aim of taking the SQE1 exam in November?
@ScrappyDoo yes there are two exams for SQE1. If you look on the SRA website you will find lots of information on the exams.

Hi @Beth1201I’ve signed up for the SQE1 40 week course starting this September
I would like to ask you the following questions as I am planning to prepare for the SQE1:
- Do you have a law background or not? ;
- Why did you choose Barbri – what was/were your criterion/criteria? ;
- How has the preparation for the SQE1 been going so far as part of the 40-week course? ;
- Would you have any recommendations to provide in terms of studying for the SQE1?
Many thanks.

- Why did you choose Barbri – what was/were your criterion/criteria? ;
- What are your views, in terms of both substance and form, on the preparation for the SQE1 as part of the 10-week course? ;
- Would you have any recommendations to provide in terms of studying for the SQE1? ;
- Did you take the SQE1? If so, how did you find the exams? Did you feel that the questions were more difficult than the mock tests/questions (which I suspect)? Also, what about time management during the exams?
Many thanks.
