[QUOTE="DonnieDarko, post: 80531, member: 9248"] I worked FT, went to school FT and applied for TCs. Unless you are independently wealthy or truly have the means to be unemployed, I would suggest remaining. A. Paralegal jobs are hard to come by even for LPC graduates B. It is highly relevant experience that many applying for TCs will not have C. Leaving any company after 3 months is bad, but as a GR it would be a red flag for me were I to see you’d left a paralegal job so soon Never underestimate your own abilities and work ethic. Your ability to work and hopefully apply for TCs/VSs will demonstrate your commitment to a career in legal profession. It may mean you need to buckle down and work out some real time/project management. You may not be able to spend all free time with friends/families. But if you prioritise your time and the right number of applications, you’re in with a chance. [/QUOTE]
