Course Description

FE1 Prep Course – Law Society of Ireland Entrance Examination Preparation - Classroom | Live Online





What is the FE1 (Final Examination – Part 1)?

The FE1 (Final Examination – Part 1) is the first stage in qualifying as a solicitor in Ireland.
Set by the Law Society of Ireland, the FE1 exams assess core legal subjects and require a strong understanding of both legal principles and exam technique.

Many candidates find the FE1 challenging due to the volume of material, the style of questioning, and the standard expected by the Law Society. Structured preparation is essential to succeed.
