I am looking to sit the QLA exams to requalify in Scotland. Has anyone sat these recently and have any books for sale? Also any advice would be gratefully received esp about exemptions. (This has replaced the UK intra-transfer test). Many thanks, Kerry

Hello Kerry, it would be great if you could share some advice on how you prepared for the exams. I will PM you.

If you would like to pm me I am happy to give you some guidance. I have now competed all seven exams and was admitted to the Roll last week. Kind regards, Kerry

Hi Kerry,
I am New Zealand qualified and due to start the QLA exams this November. Can I ask how you found each of the 7 that you sat? Would you have any advice?
I’d be really grateful for any advice!
If anyone has created a group to share some advice I’m happy to join

Hi Kerry,
Congratulations. I am happy for you.
I am also sitting for my first exam in May and I would appreciate it if you could help me with some tips on approaching the exams.
Hi all, I am hoping to sit the exams in November. If anyone has set up a group to share advice/materials I would be most grateful if I could be added please. Thanks very much.
Hi all. I want to get started on the process of dual qualifying and struggling to get any information on the process apart from on the Law Soc of Scotland website. Anyone who has done/in the process of doing the exams would you be able to offer some advice? I understand we need to complete the exams within 12 months of the certificate - do you think this is do-able while working full-time? In terms of exemptions - do you apply for these once you have your certificate or can you do this before?

Hi Kerry,
Im looking to sit QLA exams as well but I'm clueless at the moment with prep. I can see your post was 11 months ago. Did you end up giving the exam, if so, it would be great if we can have a chat and if you can help me provide some exam prep material. It would help me tremendously
Thanks.

At present I am also in search of preparation material. Being lawyer I have idea and research of concerned laws and acts of Scotland. Please consider for Perlego for online books.

Is there any place (academy/university) that helps with this exams?

I have searched but found no academy or university or institute for preparation. Do you know any LL.B final student from university of Edinburgh, Glasgow or Strathclyde he can provide used books and materials for preparation.
