SQE1 Practice Questions & Mock Exams: Some Affordable Options

Updated October 2025 – If you’ve been through all the free SQE1 practice questions and feel like you’d still like some extra practice, you may want to consider paying for more MCQs.  In this short article, I’ve written about places you can find affordable SQE1 mocks.

Note that this article does not include the more extensive (and expensive) prep-course offerings.  Some of the options below might include books or webinars, along with sample questions, but they’re not packages offering intensive instruction.

Where to Find More SQE1 Practice Questions

There are not many places offering affordable access to SQE1 practice questions, but here are a few possibilities: 

• SQE-Style Mock Exams | For Self-Study from us! (aka. Lawyer in London) – This is a cheeky plug for the new FLK1-style mocks from yours truly! We’ve created sets of 90 or 180 single-best-answer questions, in the style of SQE1. They are accessible on desktop and mobile, and there’s an online timer as well as bookmark functionality. Answers and explanations are also provided. You can find the tests here.

What are the mocks like? They aim to mirror (as far as is possible) the format and substance of real SQE1 questions. This means, for example, that all the questions are single-best-answer (and that more than one response may be technically correct)!

We’ve had some early feedback, saying that the mocks are tough. The goal is not for the questions to be unduly niche or tricky (this would not be helpful to anyone)! Rather, all the questions are, again, designed to be as similar to actual SQE questions as possible (and SQE1 is pretty tough!)

These mocks take the single-best-answer format seriously – requiring you to read carefully(!) and separate good responses from better, more complete, responses. (I believe this reflects the actual exam, where candidates report that the 5-suggested answers appear as different “shades of grey,” or that the examiners seemed to be “splitting hairs”).

I also wanted the mocks to reflect the fact that the SRA’s SQE1 assessment specification is very broad (and everything within the spec is examinable). This means that not every question in the actual SQE1 will ask about run-of-the-mill concepts like contract breach, duty of care or Part 36 offers. Are breaches of contract and Part 36 offers important topics to know? Of course. Will they show up in your actual exam? Most likely. (They appear in these mocks too!) However, it would be a mistake to think that only basic / big / 1L topics will be tested in SQE1, or that the actual SQE only tests “general-ish” concepts. Kaplan SQE (who administers the SQE ) can – and does! – ask questions from all parts of the vast SQE1 assessment spec. I’ve tried to craft these self-study mocks in a similar way.

• FLK1 & FLK2 Practice Assessments (2025/26) from Revise SQE* – From the publishers of the Revise SQE texts come 2 books of SQE1 practice questions. Each book has 180 SQE1-style questions and answers (one covers FLK1 and the other FLK2). They also contain advice on approaching the exams and what to expect on test day. Both are available in print and as eBooks. You can find the FLK1 Practice Assessment here on Revise’s website & here on Amazon, and the FLK2 Practice Assessment here on Revise’s website & here on Amazon. (If you buy direct from Revise, you can get 10% off by using the code SELFSTUDY10 at checkout).

Revise SQE’s Book Bundles – You can save some money if you buy the FLK1 and FLK2 mocks together. You can buy the paperback bundle here and the eBook bundle here. (Use code SELFSTUDY10 at checkout to receive a 10% discount).

• SQE1 Practice Tests from LexDex Solutions* – This mock exam is available through Udemy.  (For the unfamiliar, Udemy is an online course provider that offers classes in everything under the sun.  There are about 70,000 instructors on the platform and 200,000 courses.  If there’s something you’d like to learn about, you can usually find it on Udemy).  There are approximately 90 FLK1 and 90 FLK2 questions included in this practice test and access is unlimited.

• SQE1 FLK 1 & 2 – Practice Test by David Sinclair* – This is another mock exam available through Udemy. It includes 50 questions for FLK1 and another 50 for FLK2.  Access is unlimited.  You can purchase the prep test here: SQE1 FLK 1 & 2 – Practice Test.
