This is a full set of the revision notes I made when I was preparing for the first sitting of SQE1 in November 2021.
The notes were originally made just for my own reference. While I passed the SQE in quintile 1, there is no
guarantee that every detail of this set of notes is accurate. You should read these notes as a guidance for your
revision. Always refer back to your textbooks for the most accurate and up-to-date position of the law. As I am
working a full-time job, I spent little time polishing the notes before putting them on eBay, so please forgive any
typos.
