At Revise SQE, we take accuracy seriously and work hard to ensure our SQE revision guides are as clear and reliable as possible. Despite our robust editorial processes, a few errors have been spotted—thanks to the sharp eyes of our readers, and we’re genuinely grateful for their feedback.
To support students using earlier editions, we’ve compiled a list of corrections so they can easily make notes in their books.
Looking ahead, we’ve strengthened our editorial team and are now committed to annual updates to keep our guides accurate and up to date. Corrections are shown in bold.
