Overview

This SQE2 Questions & Answers revision guide covers the requirements of the SRA SQE2 assessment specification for written legal skills in the context of wills and the administration of estates, which is examined four times a year in January, April, July and October. Designed specifically to help you prepare for the SQE2 assessment, it provides a clear, concise and highly focused overview of the subject, and demonstrates how you will be assessed at SQE2 in the legal skills of case and matter analysis, legal research, legal writing and legal drafting. The book is clearly structured around the SRA specification and focuses only on the skills you need to revise for the SQE2 assessment. The book makes clear links to SQE1 functioning legal knowledge to help you understand how the law you learnt in SQE1 can be applied in practice, and there are SQE2-style mock questions to build your confidence in answering assessment questions. Each chapter examines the SQE2 assessment criteria and outlines the essentials of each skill, followed by two SQE2-style practice questions with sample answers. The detailed commentary illustrates how the answers compare to the SRA’s competency requirements, and identifies which answers are likely to satisfy the criteria and which will not. Revise SQE Written Skills for SQE2: Questions & Answers in Wills and the Administration of Estates is available as a print book and ebook, and is suitable whether you are following an SQE preparation course, a self-study route or preparing to retake the SQE2 assessment.
