[QUOTE="trainee4u, post: 209531, member: 30779"] tbf there are plenty of advantages of SQE, but perhaps not for the average member of this forum. you can self-study SQE for a few hundred pounds, pay the £5k fees and that's cheaper than GDL. SQE includes the entire GDL syllabus so GDL doesn't really serve much purpose and in the long run could just be scrapped. Also you can sit SQE1 and SQE2 six years apart, and for example some employers accept SQE1 alone as proof of legal knowledge (which it is!) to work as a paralegal. Law firms and the private law universities have chosen not to take much advantage, but in the long term it's likely that things will change more than they have already done. I'd say the biggest problem is that SQE is far too expensive. The New York bar exam is only $250 ($750 for foreigners). [/QUOTE]
