SQE1 revision is easier to manage when reading, recall, question practice and progress tracking work together instead of living in separate files and apps.
Break FLK1 and FLK2 into clear topic blocks and move through them in a repeatable order. A useful sequence is: learn the rule, reduce it into a shorter recall format, test it with questions, then revisit mistakes. This makes revision measurable and reduces the temptation to keep rereading familiar topics.
After reading a topic, close the notes and try to reconstruct the rule, elements, exceptions and key deadlines from memory. Flashcards, short checklists and visual summaries are most useful when they force retrieval instead of becoming another set of pages to passively read.
SQE1 uses single best answer questions, so legal knowledge has to be applied to a factual scenario. Question practice should therefore sit alongside reading from the start. When you miss a question, record both the legal rule and the reasoning error that led you to the wrong option.
A strong revision plan changes as your performance changes. Completed reading is useful, but question accuracy, recurring errors and topics you repeatedly hesitate on are better indicators of what deserves more time before the exam.
