[QUOTE="Anon08, post: 68112"] Thanks for your question! Just to give context, I am presently a final year (3rd year) non-law student. The way it works is that if you get a TC offer before your final year (e.g. this summer) you have until the start of your final year to accept (TBC by your firm). If you are offered it in your final year, you normally have 4 weeks to accept. Once you graduate with your non-law degree - you have to go to law school (most likely to do the PGDL/SQE for 2 years), before starting your 2-year training contract. Regarding whether to apply for a VS or TC - it honestly doesn't matter too much. As a non-law, and in general, I advise going down the VS route to 1) get experience, 2) know whether the firm is right for you. Hope that helps! [/QUOTE]
