[QUOTE="TheLawApplicant, post: 144654, member: 29726"] I think try and get a paralegal gig (or any job) and work hard on applications rather than self fund the SQE. Why? Because the SQE is very expensive and given your academics place you in the top 1% of candidates, assuming you can write a good application form and interview well, you will very very likely get a good TC. I actually don't know anyone with an Oxbridge 1:1 who didn't get a TC if they applied to at least 15+ firms. Why would you spend £14k on a course that would almost certainly be free to you if you wait a year, and would also be less stressful as with a TC there feels less pressure to succeed (imo). Just my advice. [/QUOTE]
