GBSQE prep Barbri provide short but engaging lectures on the materials covered in SQE 1. My learning coach was so helpful and I could book an appointment with her at any time she was available however many times you need. You get physical as well as online books which is great and you can search and highlight in the online books. They have lots of multiple choice questions and a few mocks that you can practice before the exams. The PSP guided you with how much time you need to study each week to stay on top and the progress reports tell you which subjects you need to work on. I did feel after sitting the exams the questions were a little easier than the actual exams and I think the fact patterns in Barbris sample questions could be more detailed and longer. The updates document was helpful but I did feel like updates came a little late and the document was unorganised. I would recommend students to study with Barbri based on my experience.

GBI did the 20 week course with BARBRI I did the 20 week course with BARBRI for SQE1 and passed on my first attempt. Would highly recommend the course for anyone! It is online so is also very suitable for anyone working or anyone who wants to study for the SQE but needs to be flexible with their time and study at their own pace. It is a combination of online lectures, readings, many many practice tests, mocks and tutor support (there are lots of resources to use). All of this is available on their personalised platform and you can schedule your study time around your timetable. The tutors are very friendly, engaging, responsive and offer really excellent support ahead of a very difficult exam :)

INMy experience with BARBRI's SQE1… My experience with BARBRI's SQE1 coaching exceeded all my expectations. The spaced learning MCQs, mixed practice questions and the topic-wise lectures make the course really accessible and easy to follow. The best thing about the whole experience was the Personal Study Plan (PSP) which broke down the tasks for me to do each day and each week. This helped push me to constantly achieve my goals week by week, which helped keep anxiety at bay. The PSP made sure that I had learnt everything and completed all my mocks right in time for my exams! I am pleased to report that I passed in the first quintile at my first attempt- so the course really works. Would 10/10 recommend BARBRI to anyone doing their SQE1.

DEA huge thank you to Barbri A huge thank you to Barbri for providing me with all of the knowledge and support I needed to pass the SQE1, and a shout out to my learning coach Joanne White who was always there to help me when I needed it! I am so grateful for our regular catch ups through what can be a very daunting process.

GBDisappointing Experience While I appreciate that the laws change, the books should be updated more regularly. I started the course Aug 2023, while my book was published in 2022 (No month published). There were 11 pages of supplementary notes with 25 days of updates and more than 50 amendments across different subjects. I am aware of at least one law change (9 months ago) that is not present in the supplementary information. While tests were helpful, some of the questions and answers were incorrect due to the above information. Questions and answers need to be updated in real-time. Response time to questions was good. The system did not always work. Sometimes, being locked out of course entirely and constant errors in loading tests. Lectures were sometimes very difficult to hear; the volume was too low. I will be looking elsewhere for SQE2 which is disappointing as BARBRI is supposed to be a 'Global leader in legal education'.
