[QUOTE="TCLA Community Assistant, post: 77755, member: 2672"] It may be impractical if you are waiting until 2024/2025. Law students starting courses this September onwards won’t be able to take the LPC route. With the first groups graduating in 2024, it’s likely the last major intakes for the LPC will be 2023. The LPC route will still be open of course (all the way through to 2032) but there will just be far fewer people taking that route. It is difficult to hypothesise though - it could be the case that the LPC is still storming along until it’s death in 2032. The one benefit of the LPC (no matter when you do it) is it does exempt you from SQE stage 1, but you’d still need to complete SQE stage 2. I think the need to do a PGDL is an interim measure from firms. They are risk adverse and don’t want to rely on SQE prep courses that aren’t tried and tested yet. I don’t think this will be the case in the next couple of years, as they will be able to identify SQE prep courses that are sufficient in covering SQE prep for non-law grads. [/QUOTE]
