[QUOTE="Alison C, post: 113716, member: 3943"] Another thing I failed to pick up on: you are already doing the LPC. I have seen some phenomenally high grades for the LPC - literally in the 90s, things I haven't had since I was about 12; certainly way above the marks on the GDL/undergrad courses (other than unbelievable results given to gifted mathematicians!). Admittedly, these 90 pluses are from smart cookies, but it goes to show that a Distinction is within your reach if you can grasp the right way to approach it. This is an obvious chance to really up your game on the academic front if you feel you know how. A great set of marks will sweep any previous blips off the table with style. I haven't done the LPC and I know it's supposed to be unlike previous studies, but it's a very well-respected route to qualification and far more well-understood than the SQE. Vlogger Liam Porritt has some excellent tips on how to succeed; also he has put his BPP LPC notes up for sale. If you are at U Law there are sets of notes to buy for that too from other sources. So maybe that's the thing to really aim for. And if that really isn't your bag then finding a firm that is a good fit for your academic leanings will be the key thing to focus on when you do get around to applications. With the LPC under your belt you will have a lot to offer and to a wider range of firms. Hope that helps! [/QUOTE]
