My view is it is if you stand a chance of getting into a good firm as the firms put their future trainees into the PGDL before the SQE course. However if someone might be trying to get into law with low grades, not much chance at a bigger firm, probabl8y will cobble together QWE in various ways and then hope to obtain a job at a regional high street firm in those cases I am not sure it is necessary (although I was taught a huge amount of law in my 3 year LLB which I use to this day. So I certainly find detailed study of law very useful on a personal level).
