SQE1 FLK1 practice set 3
Forty-five single-best-answer questions from the FLK1 subjects: Business Law and Practice, Dispute Resolution, Contract, Tort, the Legal System of England and Wales, Constitutional and Administrative Law and EU Law, and Legal Services, with ethics and professional conduct woven through. Each question has five options and one best answer. This is one quarter of an FLK paper. From January 2027 each FLK assessment has 170 questions in two sessions of 85, each lasting 2 hours 33 minutes. This set is timed at the January 2027 pace of 1 minute 48 seconds a question (81 minutes for 45 questions). There is no fixed pass mark: the SRA sets it separately for each paper at each sitting and reports it on a scaled score where 300 out of 500 is a pass, so this set gives you a percentage and a subject breakdown, not a pass or fail. The law is stated as it stood in England and Wales on 1 September 2026 (the SRA assesses the law as it stands four calendar months before the first assessment in a window).
Exam mode: timed, answers at the end, like the real test. Practice mode: untimed, the answer and explanation after each question.

A sample question
A seller wrongfully refused to deliver 100 tonnes of steel at 500 pounds a tonne. The buyer could have bought the same steel elsewhere the next day at 520 pounds a tonne. Instead it waited six weeks, by which time the price had risen to 600 pounds a tonne, and then bought. What damages can the buyer recover?
- 50,000 pounds, the full price of the steel it did not receive.
- 6,000 pounds, the average of the two replacement prices.
- 2,000 pounds, the extra cost of buying a replacement promptly.
- 10,000 pounds, the extra cost it actually paid six weeks later.
- Nothing, as the buyer failed to mitigate its loss.
