Hi,

I have just completed the SQE Preparation Course with BPP and I am due to sit the SQE1 in January! I definitely felt overwhelmed when the course commenced and I too struggled with BPP's slides and the workshops more broadly. I ended up self-teaching for the most part! I felt as though some of the preparation on adapt could be very chunky and quite hard to break down. I actually turned to 'Brigitte's Notes' and I could not recommend them enough for getting me through the BPP exams (and also now the SQE1 in January). They were optimised for BPP students and helped me hugely in cutting down the BPP adapt notes, as I really struggled with this. This allowed me to take the time to understand the materials, rather than rushing to get the work done prior to workshops. I did adapt them and add/ remove info where necessary, but overall they were brilliant and far more beneficial than any revision books I had purchased (and also much cheaper)!

I used a study planner and it helped so much - I can try and dig mine out if this would be helpful? I did follow BPP's general study advice and this was quite useful.

In terms of studying the core black letter law modules, I sat the law foundations course with BPP prior to commencing the SQE Prep course so for the most part they were fresh in my mind. However, I allocated set times each week to go over them and also made a lot of time for them closer to the BPP exams.

Top tip for the BPP exams also - many of the practice MCQs available were used in the actual exams, they were just worded differently or included different examples!

I am now revising for the SQE1 in January and would appreciate any general revision advice which anyone has!

Hope this was somewhat useful, and good luck!
