Syllabus — what to study
The exam mainly covers the following areas:
A suggested 3-week practice plan
- Week 1 — Off the blocks
Read the official syllabus and the core concepts of each area for understanding, not rote memory. Run a daily practice set in Practice mode, read every explanation, and start your streak on day one.
- Week 2 — Hunt your weak spots
Focus your fire on the heaviest-weighted areas, then use Drill mode to re-do only the questions you got wrong — the fastest way to plug gaps. Don't break the streak!
- Week 3 — Race the real thing
Run full timed papers in Mock-exam mode to get used to the Part of 2h30m pace and pressure. Aim to score comfortably above the pass mark before you book — then close it out, first try.

Practise the Part II case studies; applying the law to scenarios is harder than recalling facts.
You must pass BOTH parts separately (48/80 and 12/20), not just reach 60% overall.
