July 2023 SQE1 results have been released to candidate accounts. Candidates will also receive an email with a link to access their results. We also have some information to help you understand what is included in your SQE1 results.
Taking SQE2. If you find that you have passed SQE1 and would like to take SQE2 in October 2023, please don’t forget that you will need to complete the pre-booking steps as usual in order to book an assessment. Booking is open and closes at 5pm (UK time) on 11 September 2023. Should a large number of candidates want to book at the same time, a queuing system will be in place for logging in to candidate accounts to allow for fair access to the booking process. If this facility is used, the waiting page will indicate your estimated waiting time and as soon as you reach the front of the queue, you will be redirected to that page.
Please see the Booking and paying for assessments page to understand what steps are needed in order to book an assessment. The Candidate Services Team will only be able to help candidates with queries relating to booking if they are logged in to their candidate account. Bookings are subject to availability.
