What is the SQE?

The Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE) is a single, national licensing examination that all aspiring solicitors must take before qualifying as English solicitors, regardless of their professional background and qualifications. This also includes qualified foreign lawyers who were previously required to pass the Qualified Lawyers Transfer Scheme (QLTS).

The SQE assessments replaced the QLTS as the qualification route for foreign lawyers, which is no longer in force. The QLTS has been successful in attracting many applicants from various jurisdictions, who are now dual-qualified English solicitors.

The SQE is administered by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), the independent regulatory body of the Law Society of England and Wales, ensuring candidate assessment is both rigorous and fair.

The purpose of the SQE assessments is to ensure that all candidates who qualify as solicitors have the knowledge, skills and ability necessary to perform their role competently and ethically.

The SQE aims to increase consumer protection by providing greater assurance that all qualifying solicitors meet consistent, high standards at the point of admission.

The SRA has published a competence statement which defines the continuing competences it requires from all solicitors. Foreign lawyers are required to demonstrate that they have the equivalent knowledge and understanding of law and practise in England and Wales in the same areas as that required of domestic candidates.

The SRA have developed the SQE Assessment Specification, which is based on the solicitor competence statement and forms the syllabus for the assessments.



Why become an English solicitor?

There are numerous reasons to become qualified in English law. While taking the SQE will undoubtedly advance your legal career, this qualification will also improve your professional profile and knowledge, and provide you with diverse and unique opportunities.

By investing in the SQE, you are investing in yourself. Law is a respected profession in England and Wales. If you are a domestic candidate, the SQE offers you an excellent opportunity to build a rewarding and intellectually challenging legal career.

If you are a foreign qualified lawyer, becoming a dual-qualified English solicitor may open up new opportunities for you to work in London in any international law firm or in other common law jurisdictions. Or you may choose to stay in your current jurisdiction and offer additional legal services to your existing clients or advise on cross-border transactions. Whatever your reason for becoming an English solicitor, you will benefit: English law is held in high esteem and is frequently the law of choice in cross-border transactions; London is among the leading legal centres in the world and the internationally preferred seat of international disputes; and as an English solicitor, you will be a valuable and trusted international legal adviser, and will gain a competitive advantage over your peers.

Becoming an English solicitor may mean:

� Discovering new career opportunities

� Working as a solicitor in England and Wales

� Enhancing your professional profile, reputation and marketability in your home jurisdiction

� Offering a wider range of legal services to your clients

� Representing clients in international arbitrations and cross-border disputes

� Becoming familiar with a common law system

� Winning more business and increasing your revenues



How are you assessed on the SQE?

The full range of skills required to practise English law are tested on the SQE, including oral, written and professional. The SQE assessments are designed to test applicants on most of the solicitor competence statement and ensure they meet the threshold standard and legal knowledge expected of a solicitor on qualification.The assessments are divided into two stages:

SQE I: Functioning Legal Knowledge (FLK) This stage tests knowledge and understanding of professional conduct, solicitors’ accounts, financial regulation, land law, property practice, taxation, business law, contract, tort, dispute resolution, criminal law and criminal litigation, wills and probate, the English legal system, constitutional law, equity and trusts, human rights and EU law. SQE1 is a computer-based assessment which consists of 360 multiple choice questions, divided into two single assessments of 180 questions each (FLK1 & FLK2). The SQE1 assessments last 10 hours in total. Candidates must take the two parts of SQE1 all together.

SQE II: Practical Legal Skills AssessmentThis stage tests six skills: client interviewing and completion of an attendance note, advocacy, legal research, legal drafting, legal writing and case and matter analysis. The skills are assessed in the context of five legal practice areas: Business Law and Practice, Dispute Resolution, Criminal Litigation, Property Practice, and Wills and Administration of Estates.

The skills are assessed through 16 simulated legal environments known as ‘stations’, which sample across the skills and practice areas. Candidates cannot choose the practice area for their skills assessment. SQE2 is offered across five days.

Assessment Rules � SQE1 must be passed before SQE2 can be

attempted. � The two stages of the SQE must be passed

within six years. Candidates are allowed a maximum of three attempts at each assessment during the six-year period.

� The assessments are closed-book and candidates are not allowed to use any materials during the assessments.

The best analogy to the SQE is a driving test: whilst SQE1 is equivalent to the theory test element, SQE2 comprises the practical component, where you are expected to demonstrate your competence in the skills required.



Eligibility Criteria

Applicants who wish to qualify as English solicitors via the SQE must first ensure they meet the SRA eligibility criteria for admission.

Domestic Candidates

All domestic candidates must either: � have a degree in law � have a degree in a discipline that is not law � have completed an apprenticeships scheme

Paralegals and legal executives may also be eligible to apply. Domestic candidates must also complete a two-year qualifying work experience.

Foreign Qualified Lawyers

Foreign lawyers are exempt by the SRA and do not need to fulfil any internship or experience requirement, nor do they need to take any separate English language test.To be eligible to apply for admission, foreign lawyers must hold the correct professional qualification in a jurisdiction that the SRA recognises, and meet the requirements as to character and suitability. If you are a foreign lawyer and are aware of anything which might prevent you from meeting these requirements, you can apply to the SRA for an early check on any character and suitability issue prior to sitting the assessments.Foreign lawyers are able to apply for exemption from the SQE on the basis of their prior qualifications or experience. Exemptions can only be granted from a whole component of the SQE.

For any questions relating to your eligibility, to request an early assessment or seek any exemption, please contact the SRA: www.sra.org.uk

Taking the Assessments

The assessments are offered twice a year by a sole assessment provider, Kaplan, which has been appointed by the SRA.

The cost to sit the SQE1 assessment is £1,558 and SQE2 assessment is £2,422. Candidates do not have to pay VAT on SQE assessment fees. This does not include any cost of preparatory courses.

There are no formal requirements to comply with before taking the SQE assessments. You can simply contact Kaplan and register to sit the assessments at any time. SQE1 is delivered online in conjunction with Pearson VUE.

Following registration for the SQE assessments, each candidate will receive an examinee number, exact locations of the testing centres and a detailed schedule of the assessments.

Candidates with special needs should contact the assessment provider with a request for specific testing arrangements.

The results of the assessments are made available a few weeks after the date of each assessment.

Admission to the Roll of Solicitors

Once you have passed the SQE assessments and fulfilled any outstanding requirements set by the SRA, you may proceed to the next step and apply to the SRA for admission as an English solicitor.

If you do not intend to practise in England and Wales following successful completion of the assessments, you can still maintain your name on the Roll of Solicitors.

The assessment provider, Kaplan is not allowed to provide preparation courses for the SQE assessments.

The scope of the material, however, is comprehensive and covers nearly the entire corpus of English law. In fact, you can spend days just trying to understand what is covered by the syllabus.

In addition, current law degrees are not designed to prepare students for SQE1 and SQE2, which are practical in nature. The cost of sitting the SQE exams will run into thousands of pounds, with a limited number of attempts permitted per test.

It is, therefore, essential that you prepare for the assessments with a training provider that understands your needs and will provide you with the right guidance and advice from day one. Preparing with QLTS School will help you focus on your studies, build your confidence, and save you the time, money, and effort of trying to compile your own study materials and plan.

If you want to become an English solicitor, a big factor in determining whether you’ll pass your SQE assessments is the course provider itself. Without excellent teaching, informative materials, a support network and experienced staff to guide you, passing will be more difficult.

QLTS School offers a dedicated approach to the SQE assessments – on which we are exclusively focused.

We have a proven track record of hundreds of candidates who passed the QLTS assessments on their first attempt and are now dual-qualified English solicitors. You can learn about the journeys of some of our successful candidates – and advice on what works and what doesn’t for those on the road to dual qualification – on our website.

While the SQE assessments differ from the QLTS, both exams are largely based on the same content, style and format. Taking the SQE preparation course with us will give you the confidence you need and ensure that you are fully prepared for the assessments. You will benefit from an array of advice and support that will be available to you all around the year.

SQE2 Course

While the SQE1 merely tests your knowledge of academic law, the SQE2 practical assessment aims to test higher level of knowledge, understanding and ability to accurately advise clients using a variety of legal skills.

What makes our SQE2 course unique?

Studying for the SQE2 assessment requires more than simply reading through textbooks or attending lectures or seminars, as you may have done during your formative legal studies.

The focus is firmly on you mastering and displaying considerable legal knowledge in the relevant legal practice areas, as well as foundation subjects, and successfully using the skills expected of a practising solicitor.

Our course is therefore designed to bridge the gap between your academic study and legal skills, which can only be gained through practical experience.

The nature of the course promotes flexible learning. You can practise the skills required whenever it suits you – making it ideal if you work full-time and allowing you to balance the many demands for your time and attention.

You will also have the opportunity to undertake mock practice stations with personal tutor feedback in client interviewing and in advocacy. The focus would be on building your confidence and reinforcing your ability to be able to speak with clarity, and help you present yourself in an articulate, professional and composed manner.

The SQE2 course features:

� An initial consultation with one of our tutors and a tailor-made study plan

� Course Guide � Practice area summaries � 2,000+ digital flash cards covering the

practice areas to help you reinforce your legal knowledge

� SQE Video Library of 80+ online tutorials, spanning 20+ hours of lectures which cover the substantive and procedural law

� SQE practice questions on the legal practice areas

� 15 English writing tasks intended to ensure you can use appropriate, clear, precise and acceptable English

� Access to SQE Skills Online – 60+ interactive skill exercises, complemented by video and audio material and a 130-page accompanying textbook

� Free periodic updates for the course materials � Legal Skills Video Workshops (see next

page) � 240 mock exams with suggested solutions

for self-assessment � Mock practice stations with personal tutor

feedback based on the SRA marking criteria


Key Benefits � Client interviewing: the videos simulate real

interviews between a solicitor and a client, including: the initial stages of an interview; building rapport and dealing with emotional clients; asking questions; taking notes and dealing with documents; and closing the interview and preparing an attendance note.

� Advocacy: learn what is involved in contentious advocacy so that you can demonstrate the role and duties of an advocate in both civil and criminal courts. The videos will also include oral presentations to a client in the solicitor’s office on a legal issue, which will help you improve your public speaking skills.

� Legal writing: learn from an experienced tutor with extensive experience in practice, who will walk you through the most important things to focus on when you write a letter of advice or an email to your client, an internal memo or an attendance note.

� Legal drafting: receive guidance on drafting commonly used documents in various contexts you may be faced with during the assessment, such as commercial contracts, board minutes, statements of case, a defence statement, and a will. The presentation will also address the right way to use precedent documents and completing forms.

� Legal research: a detailed walkthrough of completing a legal research task, from understanding the parameters of the task through to a research letter of advice or memo.

� Case and matter analysis: learn about the steps you need to take in your work, such as identifying the relevant facts and using preliminary tools of analysis, carrying out legal analysis, considering strategies for negotiation, assessing risks and client’s needs, advising on the next steps, and reporting to the supervising partner.

Success Stories of QLTS School’s Candidates who Passed the QLTS AssessmentsDon’t just take our word for it – here’s what our recent candidates who passed the assessments on their first attempt say...

Invaluable Resources, Complete Preparation“I don’t think I would have successfully completed the MCT and OSCE, without studying with the QLTS School. The materials they provided were so beneficial for me, that it really prepared me to know what to expect when it came to the exams. I would strongly recommend that anyone who is considering taking the QLTS assessments, study with the QLTS School.”Sarah LothianQualified Lawyer in Australia

Flexible Study Options“Preparation for the OSCE is different than the MCT. So reading textbooks is not enough. This is where QLTS School’s tutors come into play by making the preparation easier and running mock exams with you. I felt well prepared when I came to take the assessments. I also like that this is a self-study course and that you can practise over the Internet.”Wojciech BaginskiAttorney at Law (New York State), Foreign Lawyer (Poland)

Practical Advice, Added Value“I prepared for the MCT with QLTS School and successfully passed on my first attempt. I initially decided not to take the preparation course for the OSCE with QLTS School, but I had difficulties in preparing on my own, so I have decided to take the preparation course with QLTS School again, and then I successfully passed the OSCE.”Kyoungho KimDual Qualified Lawyer in South Korea and England and Wales

Very Positive Experience, Extremely Helpful Tutors“My experience with QLTS School was very positive. There was an enormous number of practice questions so I felt very well prepared for the MCT assessment. For the OSCE, I have found my tutor extremely helpful. She had ideas and tips that I would have not thought of myself, as the tutor was an experienced exam assessor and knew exactly what the assessor at the exam would expect of me.”Sharika NairQualified Lawyer in India

Build Your Confidence“QLTS School’s preparation meant I felt at ease during the MCT. In the OSCE, as soon as I started the interviewing and the writing, I felt very confident, because I was very well prepared with QLTS School.”Adriana Guerra SpeightQualified Lawyer in Mexico and Solicitor in England and Wales

Check Your Progress with Practice Assessments“QLTS School were very good, especially with the MCT mock exams and the mock interviews for the OSCE. I felt very well prepared when I came to take the MCT as I worked through many mock exams before the MCT itself. I would recommend the QLTS School course to anyone who needs guidance with the materials and the exams in general.”Tanja PattQualified Lawyer in Germany and Solicitor in England and Wales

Absolutely Necessary to have a Training Course before Taking the Assessments“I have found that the mocks exams were very helpful to be done with a tutor, as well as working together and getting feedback on those exams. The more exams you can do the better. I have in fact encouraged our new counsels that are joining our company that they should also take the Premium Course to be able to have even access to more of those, which I consider to be essential for the preparation.”Stephen KinesQualified Lawyer in the US (NY and Washington DC) and Canada (Ontario)

Practical, No-Nonsense Advice and Materials“I think the MCT question bank was very useful. The mock tests simulated the format and style of the questions in the exam. That prepared me well for the actual assessment. The summary materials provided for the MCT were also useful. Being qualified in another jurisdiction will certainly help my career in the long term.”Alex McGregorQualified Lawyer in Australia and Solicitor in England and Wales
