Thinking of starting SQE Prep a year in advance

Hi everyone!

I am fairly new to the forum though I have been active here and there during my time applying for a training contract. I've since secured one and am set to start in March 2027, before which I have to give my SQE in September 2025. I'm in my final year at uni right now and wanted to get a headstart on SQE prep.

To that end, does anyone know where I can get study materials for SQE 1 (both the FLK exams). I'm not too keen on buying the whole textbook bundle as I will receive those from ULaw when I start, but I was wondering if there were resources (cheaper, preferably) that I could use to study for these two exams. I've seen a lot of mock assessments so should be fine there, but I am still to find resources to actually study the content covered in the two FLKs.

I would assume many people taking the SQE off their own back would find themselves in a similar boat- so it would be great to hear where you're getting your study material from.

Thanks!
