Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ram Sabaratnam" data-source="post: 186858" data-attributes="member: 36738">Hiya [USER=34300]@Lawyering13[/USER]I'm currently on an SQE prep course myself, so hoping I can offer some useful advice below. Great to hear you're gearing up for your BARBRI course and early prep will definitely help you feel more confident once January rolls around. First, if you have any notes or feedback from your law degree or conversion course, I would definitely spend some time going over them. Although I had studied much of the underlying law several years ago, I found this very useful in helping me feel prepared before starting my course. I also think it's quite important NOT to leave studying the underlying law too late in your revision schedule. There are loads of materials you could access to help with refreshing your understanding of the underlying law, but I found it helpful to just revisit some of my old notes and also used a couple of concise textbooks to review concepts I hadn’t looked at in a while. Additionally, Oxford University Press' Concentrate series is fantastic for a quick but thorough review.Related to the first point, I would also start making or using flashcards (or even creating condensed notes) on key topics. There’s also quite a range of flashcards and notes out there (some of these are student-made), I’d suggest holding off on buying any for now. This is because it's hard to tell how thoroughly they've been vetted. Moreover, making your own flashcards can be a great way to make sure that you understand the material and frame concepts in a way that are clear to you. The BARBRI textbook itself is an excellent resource, so you’ll be in good hands making your flashcards with that alone.Finally, I'd highly recommend getting comfortable with the multiple-choice format early. The SRA website has some practice questions that can be a useful starting point. I did some of these myself before I started my course. Although there have been some concerns that their practice materials aren't reflective of the actual assessment, the SRA appears to be taking steps to provide questions/materials that are more representative. Overall, practising this style of assessment now will give you a good head start and help with test-day confidence. You can find the SRA's resources and questions directly on their website <a href="https://sqe.sra.org.uk/exam-arrangements/assessment-information" target="_blank">here</a>.Best of luck. Hope these tips help you hit the ground running come January 2025!</blockquote>
