SRA Character and Suitability- CCJ
Looking into the nature and suitability of the early character might definitely help to calm one down. It will at least give you some idea of how they may look at your situation, and being aware at least what you are up against can be a great help in deciding what your strategy should be next...- kavin333

Trainee Solicitor roles - not allowing anyone who has completed the LPC
For your SQE situation, you’re right that completing the LPC should mean you only need to tackle SQE2 if you ever need to switch paths. But honestly, that’s an extra cost and headache that isn’t ideal. I’d say keep your focus on TCs and vacation schemes where the LPC is still accepted- kavin333

What do you wear to work everyday?
Sorry for reviving this thread. Seeing this one is about wearing stuff, it's interesting to find out what do you prefer - briefcases or backpacks? I have a briefcase, but I always loved backpacks. More comfortable and spacious. So I'm planning on buying one that will look smart and stylish...- kavin333

A lost graduate
I think it's a bit of both. Self-funding's an option, but it's a big investment. And yeah, being in a small town can limit opportunities. Have you thought about internships or online remote work to get some experience?- kavin333

LLM Legal Practice (SQE1&2) at ULaw
I don't have the exact timetable, but I can give you an idea of what to expect. For SQE1, you'll have 8 taught subjects with about 1 x 2hr class per week for each main subject. Ethics is covered on day 1, and Solicitor's Accounts & Legal Services are covered every 2 weeks or so towards the end...- kavin333

SQE with Barbri vs QLTS
Hi! I've heard great things about both providers, but I'd recommend Barbri for your situation. The personal tutor and customized study plan will definitely help you stay on track with your busy schedule. Since you already have their textbooks, it might be more convenient to stick with them. That...- kavin333
