Frequently Asked Questions

Who is LemonSQEezy for?

LemonSQEezy is designed for anyone preparing for SQE1.

Whether you’re studying with a provider such as BPP, The University of Law, BARBRI or QLTS School, or you’re self-studying, our mock exams are designed to complement your preparation. We’re a mock exam provider, not a course provider, so our focus is giving you realistic practice that fits alongside whatever route you’re taking to qualification.

Why should I trust LemonSQEezy?

LemonSQEezy was created by two future Magic Circle trainees who have both sat the SQE and achieved top quintile results.

Every mock has been reviewed and refined multiple times before publication. We’ve also had external reviewers, including other future Magic Circle trainees who also achieved outstanding top quintile SQE results, test our mocks and provide detailed feedback, which we’ve carefully incorporated.

We know how important it is that practice materials are accurate, realistic, and genuinely prepare you for the SQE, so we haven’t rushed the process or cut corners. We don’t publish anything unless both of us and our external reviewers are confident it’s accurate.

Why choose LemonSQEezy for SQE mock exams?

LemonSQEezy is not designed to replace a comprehensive SQE preparation course. Instead, it’s designed to complement your existing studies by providing high-quality, realistic mock exams.

Compared to other SQE question providers, we believe three things set us apart.

First, accuracy. We’ve seen questions from other providers that are simply wrong. That’s not fair on students, who deserve materials they can trust rather than risking learning incorrect law. That’s why we take a different approach: every mock is reviewed multiple times before publication, with feedback from external reviewers incorporated throughout. We don’t publish anything unless both of us and our external reviewers are confident it’s accurate.

Second, realism. Our questions are written to closely reflect the style, length, and difficulty of the SRA’s own pre-tested sample questions (the questions that actually appeared in the real SQE assessment), giving you practice that genuinely prepares you for exam day.

Third, value. We believe excellent SQE preparation shouldn’t come with an eye-watering price tag. That’s why we’ve built what we believe is one of the highest-quality mock exam platforms on the market at one of the most affordable prices.

What do the mock exams cover?

Our mock exams are designed to cover the entire SQE1 specification.

Every mock has been written with the SRA’s published Functioning Legal Knowledge (FLK) specification in mind, ensuring you practise the topics that matter for the real exam.

How many mock exams are included?

LemonSQEezy currently includes six mock exams.

These consist of:

• Two full-length FLK1 mock exams (180 questions each).
• Two full-length FLK2 mock exams (180 questions each).
• Two 90-question mini mocks, one covering FLK1 and one covering FLK2, ideal for targeted practice or when you’re short on time.

All four full-length mock exams are split into Part A and Part B. This allows you to take a break between sections or complete each part on different days, while still experiencing the equivalent of a full SQE assessment.

Do you offer a question bank as well as mock exams?

No.

Our focus has always been on creating realistic, high-quality mock exams rather than thousands of standalone questions. Writing a huge question bank while maintaining the level of accuracy and realism we expect simply wasn’t something we were prepared to compromise on.

Instead, we’ve carefully curated a collection of mock exams that are designed to closely replicate the real SQE assessment.

What is the Daily Squeeze?

The Daily Squeeze is your daily dose of SQE revision.

Every morning, paying subscribers receive an email containing a brand-new multiple-choice question. Each question is only available until midnight, encouraging you to build a consistent revision habit through short, daily practice, rather than relying on last-minute cramming.

Revision does not always have to be serious, so don’t be surprised if the occasional lemon pun, topical reference, or current affairs joke sneaks into a question to brighten your day.

What purchase options do you offer?

You can either purchase the complete LemonSQEezy package, which includes all of our mock exams and features, or buy individual mock exams separately.

For most students, the complete package offers significantly better value for money.

I’m only studying for FLK1 or FLK2. What are my options?

While we don’t currently offer dedicated FLK1 or FLK2 packages, you can purchase individual mock exams if you only want practice for one part of the assessment.

However, if you’re preparing for the full SQE1, our complete package offers the best overall value.

Is access permanent?

No. Your subscription gives you 12 months of access from the date of purchase.

We chose a one-year subscription because it comfortably covers both an SQE sitting and, if needed, a resit. With the right preparation, we’re hoping you’ll only need the first part of that sentence, and we’ll do everything we can to help put you in a position where the resit stays firmly off your timetable.

How many devices can I log in with?

Your account can only be logged in on one device at a time.

This helps protect the integrity of our mock exams and ensures our content remains exclusive for all users.

Can I retake the mock exams?

Absolutely.

You can retake every mock exam as many times as you like during your subscription. Whether you want to measure your progress, revisit a difficult paper, or simply reinforce your knowledge, there are no limits on the number of attempts.

Can I download or screenshot the questions?

No.

Our mock exams can only be accessed within the LemonSQEezy testing environment. Downloading, screenshotting, or photographing questions is prohibited and would breach our terms of use. These measures help us protect the quality and exclusivity of our mock exams.

Are explanations provided for every question?

Yes.

Every question includes a detailed explanation explaining why the correct answer is right, why the other options are wrong, and the relevant legal principles and authorities where appropriate. We believe you learn far more from understanding why than simply seeing the correct answer.

Is the platform accessible?

Yes.

You can adjust the text size to suit your preferences, and there’s a simple toggle to activate reasonable adjustments. When enabled, this allows you to pause your exam and take breaks, with your remaining exam time preserved so you can continue when you’re ready.

We’ve designed the platform to be flexible, accessible, and easy to use for every candidate.

What exam interface do you use?

We’ve designed our exam interface to feel as close as possible to the real SQE assessment.

From the layout to the built-in calculator, question flagging, and the ability to review only flagged questions, we’ve recreated the exam experience so there are no surprises on the day. The only difference? We’ve replaced the SRA’s rather boring answer selectors with lemons.

Can I practise under exam conditions?

Absolutely.

You can choose between Exam Mode and Training Mode.

Exam Mode mirrors the real SQE experience, including the official timings, allowing you to complete a full mock under realistic exam conditions before receiving your overall score, detailed explanations, and performance analytics at the end.

Training Mode is untimed and provides immediate feedback after every question, making it ideal when you’re learning new topics or revising weaker areas.

Do you provide performance analytics?

Yes. We offer one of the most detailed analytics dashboards available for SQE preparation.

After completing a mock, you’ll receive detailed insights into your performance, including your results by topic, time spent per question, comparison with other candidates, stamina graphs showing how your accuracy changed throughout the exam, confidence tracking, personalised blind-spot analysis, and the Second Squeeze, helping you focus your revision where it matters most.

How does the Confidence Tracking feature work?

Confidence Tracking is a feature we designed after taking the SQE ourselves.

After each question, you’ll rate how confident you were in your answer on a scale of 1 to 5. Once you’ve finished the mock, we’ll compare your confidence ratings with your actual performance.

This helps you understand how accurate your instincts really are. You might discover that when you felt you were “just guessing”, you were actually correct far more often than you expected, or that your highest-confidence answers are almost always right.

Many candidates walk out of the SQE convinced they guessed far more questions than they actually did. We both felt exactly the same. Looking back afterwards, we realised many of those educated guesses were correct. We built Confidence Tracking to turn that uncertainty into meaningful data, helping you understand your decision-making, identify patterns in your performance, and go into the real exam with greater confidence.

And if that’s not your cup of lemon tea, don’t worry. The feature is completely optional.

What is the Second Squeeze?

The Second Squeeze is our intelligent personalised revision tool, designed to help you focus on your weakest areas.

Once you’ve completed all of our mock exams, the platform analyses your performance and automatically creates a personalised mock exam using questions you’ve previously answered incorrectly, together with questions covering the topics you’ve consistently found most challenging. This gives you a fully tailored and varied mock exam, allowing you to spend less time revising what you already know and more time improving where it matters most.
