Results for the April 2026 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. If you want to sit again in October, please see the dedicated information on the process. Seat reservation forms will be sent to your registered SQE email address from 6pm on 27 August. The deadline for completing the seat reservation form is 5pm on 1 September 2026.
In order to book for SQE2, you MUST have completed the pre-booking steps as usual for any assessment. You can do this after you receive your results. If you do not complete these steps, you risk delaying being able to book. The Candidate Services Team will only be able to help you with queries relating to booking if you are logged in to your candidate account.
If you already have reasonable adjustments in place in line with the reasonable adjustments policy, you can view what they are and how long they are valid for in your SQE candidate account.
