From knowledge to practice
While SQE1 tests your functioning legal knowledge, SQE2 is about application. Taken after SQE1, it assesses how well you can perform the everyday tasks expected of a newly qualified solicitor. You will face realistic client scenarios, testing your ability to communicate clearly, draft accurately, and think on your feet.
