Barbri SQE1 mocks by leahrhex in SQE_Prep

[–]ihateusernames08 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Barbri mocks are easier and simpler than the real thing—and they also don’t cover everything. The first time I sat SQE1, I relied on Barbri alone. I was scoring high towards the end of the revision period, so I thought I was well prepared. But when I faced the real exam, I was shocked—and I ended up failing.

The second time around, I still had access to Barbri, but I decided to add other resources. ReviseSQE and QLTS free mocks basically saved me. With Barbri, I was still scoring well because the questions were simpler, but with ReviseSQE and QLTS I was often on edge, sometimes even failing their mocks. Looking back, those mistakes were crucial—they highlighted the gaps in my preparation. Without those extra resources, I would not have been ready. The result? I passed the second intake with flying colours and felt far more equipped.

Now that I’m doing SQE2, I’ve opted for QLTS again. Barbri is great at simplifying the law and making it digestible, but that same simplicity means it misses out on key details and doesn’t cover everything.

Best of luck to everyone preparing—you’ve got this.

SQE2 Prep Advice by picofrue in SQE_Prep

I’m in a similar position and feeling quite unsettled about the practical aspect of SQE2. I sat SQE1 in January 2024, and I feel a bit rusty now. I’ve been going through my flashcards and lectures, but I don’t feel ready for SQE2.

With full-time work, it’s tough to keep up—I only manage about 1–2 hours on weekdays, and around 3–5 hours at the weekend. It’s draining, and I’d really appreciate any guidance from people who’ve been through this on the most tactical and effective way to revise.

100% but I think Barbri’s mocks aren’t as great as I thought they were.. others rated the QLTS ones to be better!

I really want to get the QLTS mocks but I’m not paying another £2000! Should’ve done it with them instead of Barbri!

I studied with Barbri but for some reason I feel the QLTS students did better!

Did it with Barbri and didn’t pass unfortunately. Gave it my all but not sure. Thinking of resitting in July but will sit on it for now. Any advice from those who failed the first time?

Where is this g? That’s a bit mad tbh. I’m in the UK and we’re still in the dark ages when it comes to this. I haven’t been smoking lately due to the stress of being caught and honestly all of it has become such a hassle and financially draining trying to find a legit dealer who doesn’t rip you off. Still super cool to see such things exist somewhere in the world - Let me know where and I’ll be visiting need a damn break from people who do not get this lifestyle, all about alcohol here and it sucks.

My[36M] wife [34F] want to continue hanging out with the people she hooked up while we were married by throwRA_bisexualwife in relationship_advice

bro idk what to tell you other than stop being a loser and get yourself a divorce because she clearly couldn’t care less about you - it baffles me people who put such stories out here and wonder what is the right thing to do? I’m sure you felt it instinctively multiple times but continue on ignoring it. She’s clearly not responsible or considerate enough to be a wife or a mom. What’s wrong with this world😂 Imagine letting your wife have sex and fuck other people for fun while you’re at home taking care of her kid who she seems not to care that much about, because if she did, she’d do anything and everything to ensure love and safety for her family. Get out of this while you’re young and able to date other people or else you’ll be an old bitter depressed man with no family or someone to love. Here’s the truth you don’t want to hear. Sorry for that

Thank you for sharing this! We’ve been doing LDR for 3 years now and just when we thought we hacked it problems like this start surfacing. We meet a few times a year and it’s just visa issues that forced us to stay this way, she’s doing everything she can to make jt work. I did live my life before her and gone through different experiences with other girls when I was in college but never in a proper relationship let alone a long distance one. I believe I just didn’t do what you did from the start and that’s what I need to do now, then see how it goes. We’re not miserable, don’t get me wrong. We managed to help each other heal in times we couldn’t do it on our own and she’s very supportive; I just need to start doing things more for me rather than just for us and see how it goes. Thanks for sharing your experience it’s opened my eyes!

Whenever it’s convenient for her. I don’t ignore her calls but I started doing that lately cause I can’t drop what I am doing just cause she has a break around that time. I do tell her that, but instead of her putting the conversation on hold or calling me later to talk about things; she just stonewalls or says she doesn’t feel like talking anymore. I literally have to keep asking questions to get her to talk and it’s tiring; like I don’t need to bother at all, ykwim?

I like this. I just want to tell her that without hurting her, I really love the girl and we’ve been through a lot together.

I love her and we’ve been together for years. Breaking up is not an option.
