Access to BARBRI SQE preparation courses for ARU LLB graduates

The Solicitors Qualifying Exam (SQE) is a centralised assessment that was introduced in 2021 and is intended to eventually replace the Legal Practice Course (LPC) as the main route to qualification as a solicitor in England and Wales.

The introduction of the SQE aims to open up the legal profession, ensuring consistency and high standards among trainee solicitors regardless of their route to qualification.

BARBRI is an established legal educator specialising in innovative technology to help law students and lawyers succeed in achieving their legal qualification.

Their unique courses can prepare you for the SQE through to becoming a solicitor in England and Wales, as well as offering dual-qualification opportunities to become an attorney in New York or California.

As an ARU Law LLB graduate, you'll receive the following discounts on BARBRI's SQE preparation courses:

  • SQE1: 20% off BARBRI's standard fees
  • SQE2: £500 off BARBRI's course fees

There are several course lengths and options for you to choose from and you can take SQE1 and SQE2 separately if you wish.

The courses offered are flexible and adaptable, leveraging innovative technology to provide students with a structured and supportive learning environment.

You can view all the options available in the BARBRI prospectus, or work through their taster materials to see if taking the SQE with BARBRI is right for you.
