Exemptions from SQE1

You can only apply for an exemption for the whole of SQE1 FLK1 or SQE1 FLK2. To be granted an exemption you must prove that:

  • Your qualifications and/or experience cover the areas of law that are assessed in SQE1, FLK1 and/or FLK2; and

  • The law you’re qualified in/have practised in isn’t substantially different from the law of England and Wales in these areas

Very few people are given exemptions from SQE1 as there is a high threshold of knowledge and experience needed.
