[QUOTE="ZNadeem, post: 211888, member: 40237"] Hi! It's great that you're planning ahead for the SQE exams and considering how to structure your study time. If you're aiming for the January 2026 SQE1 exams and are considering 7 hours per day of study, it seems like a feasible goal, but it really depends on the delivery style of your QLTS prep course. Since QLTS tends to offer more self-paced options, it would be essential to discuss with them whether this intensive approach aligns with the course's structure and requirements. Generally, many students opt for a more traditional study timeline, beginning in September, which would give them roughly 6 months to prepare for the January exams. So starting in the summer should still allow you to catch up. That said, it's also worth considering [I]why[/I] you want to sit for the January exams instead of the July 2026 ones. The timing might conflict with other commitments like vacation scheme applications or interviews, which often fall during the months you're planning to study intensely. If you're also targeting the recruitment cycle, it could be challenging to balance intensive study with recruitment efforts. It’s a good idea to weigh whether preparing for the SQE in January is the best use of your time, especially if it could impact other opportunities like gaining work experience or securing a training contract.
