THIS EVENT IS NOW FULLY BOOKED.
The Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE) continues to present a formidable challenge to aspiring solicitors, with over half of candidates who sat SQE1 in July 2024 failing to pass both papers. These statistics place even greater pressure on students to beat the odds, and increase uncertainty around the most effective preparation techniques.
Join us on the afternoon of Tuesday 26 November for our latest virtual student event in partnership with BPP University Law School, where we’ll be taking a deep dive into why so many candidates are underperforming, and how recent successful candidates have managed to avoid these pitfalls.
The discussion will be led by BPP’s award leader (City Consortium Plus Programme and Essentials for Practice), senior lecturer and fellow of the Higher Education Academy Allison Banks, who will be joined by a panel of successful SQE candidates, including Brian Okwaisie, Charlotte Isted, Chloe Hayes and Jacqueline Andra Bot. Together, they will examine the format and content of the assessments, common pitfalls in the preparation process and the most effective study techniques. The speakers will also share their experiences of sitting the exams, as well as offering advice to those considering this route to qualification as a solicitor.
After short talks and a panel discussion, there will be virtual networking with the BPP University Law School team for follow-up questions and further careers advice.
This event is now fully booked.
