To qualify through the SQE route you must:
You don’t need to have a degree or complete QWE before taking the SQE exams (but you’ll need to pass SQE1 before SQE2). The character and suitability test is checked at the time you apply for admission.
Some foreign lawyers may be eligible for an SQE2 exemption. UK law graduates take the exact same assessment as non-law graduates or lawyers who qualified abroad. However, depending on your level of knowledge and background, your preparation might look different.

📢A note on QLTS:
In 2021, the SRA replaced a slightly different route to qualification for foreign-qualified lawyers: QLTS. Find out more about the differences between the SQE and QLTS.
