[QUOTE="LU123, post: 37725, member: 3699"] Hi, I'm currently studying the i-LPC part-time, and working full-time as a paralegal. I'll be honest, even the part-time course is pretty full on, especially when you work full-time. At the moment, I finish work around 5.30, and then I study from 7pm-10.30/11pm, also my weekends pretty much revolve around LPC work. That's just my current situation, and I'm sure people study/work differently to me. I'm also studying the online version of the LPC, which I believe is a slightly different format to the face-to-face version. It's definitely worth doing some research on the different formats of the LPC, and obtaining advice from a number of different people doing those different formats. If you think of it this way, it's £12 + thousand to study the LPC, and is a requirement of being a solicitor. Whether studying for 1 year, or 2 years, it's really important that you do well, and you definitely want to get as much out of it as possible. I'm considering going down to part-time at work in order to give myself extra breathing space, because at the moment - I don't have much! It's also worth thinking about: (1) how much downtime you need for yourself (which is really important!!) (2) if you can go down to part-time at work; or (3) if you could/would stop working all together to do the LPC full-time. Hopefully this helps. Lucy [/QUOTE]
