The Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE) is replacing the traditional LPC route to qualification. You no longer need a law degree, an expensive conversion course (GDL) or a training contract. Here are the steps to qualifying as a solicitor in England and Wales:
You’ll need an undergraduate degree or equivalent level 6 qualification (e.g. apprenticeship) in any subject. International degrees must be European Qualifications Framework-accredited qualifications.
The SQE1 tests your Functioning Legal Knowledge (FLK) through multiple-choice questions (MCQs). The SQE2 tests your application of legal skills through written and in-person oral assessments. Check the SRA's website to see if you qualify for an exemption.
You’ll need two years of signed-off QWE with up to four different organisations, paid or unpaid, demonstrating your solicitor skills. Work experience can be undertaken before, during, or after the SQE exams. Read more on our QWE page.
The last step is to apply to the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) for admission as solicitor. This process includes character and suitability checks to ensure you are fit and proper to hold the role. Learn more about it on the SRA website.
No matter who you are or what your background is, BARBRI can help you prepare for the SQE with confidence.

Trust BARBRI, they know what they are doing. I studied for SQE1 with BARBRI and the Personal Study Plan (PSP) they have put in place is just exceptional. Half of the burden of studying law is to plan for it and with BARBRI, this is done for you, so all you need to do is to stick to it and commit to the plan. I could not have passed the super SQE1 exam without BARBRI’s PSP and the constant support of my mentor.

The support from my learning coach made all the difference to my success in passing SQE1 first time. She was a tower of strength throughout the course and was always happy to schedule a meeting at short notice whenever I required one. The way in which she identifies our individual needs and the support she offers is a key ingredient to the success of us as students.
