Results for the April 2025 SQE2 have been released to candidates. All candidates have been sent an email advising them to log in to their SQE candidate account to view their results page.
The post-assessment statistical report has also been published. You may find it helpful to review Results and resits, which provides information on what is included in your results, and the post-assessment Statistical Report on our SQE Reports page to help you better understand your results. The report sets out some feedback on the SQE2 assessments and their performance.
On passing SQE2, if you intend to apply for admission, there is information on the SRA’s website about what you will need to do before applying for admission.
If you find that you need to retake SQE2, please see the assessment dates page for more information on when further sittings of the SQE2 take place.
The next sitting is in October and we have dedicated information on the booking process for this sitting. You will be able to book on-line via your candidate account from 10am on 22 September until 5pm on 24 September (UK times). Bookings are subject to availability. Please don’t forget that you will need to complete the pre-booking steps as usual in order to book an assessment.
Should it prove necessary, a queuing system will be in place to allow for fair access to the booking process. If this facility is used, the waiting page will indicate your approximate waiting time and as soon as you reach the front of the queue, you will be redirected to log in and book. You will see the test centres available for the oral assessment sittings in the bookings page when making a booking.
If you require a reasonable adjustment to resit SQE2, please log into your candidate account to make your application for a reasonable adjustment plan. If you intend to sit in October 2025, please make this application as soon as possible.
