[QUOTE="Yoryis, post: 61793, member: 10115"] Many thanks, Jessica! To be honest, I never considered the GDL/LPC route outside a TC contract. I applied for TCs in order to (1) avoid self-funding the QLTS and (2) minimize the risk of qualifying through QLTS and then not being able to find an associate position because I would compete with NQ lawyers who have real UK law experience (and 4 different seats). So I understand that self-funding and qualifying through the QLTS asap would be the best/fastest option? If I do not manage to take the QLTS now (not sure I can devote enough time at the moment), I will need to pay for the SQE and once I pass it (either the first or both parts) I should apply to law firms for QWE. Correct? Is this a different application than for TCs? Do you know if, during these two years, I will be a trainee or perhaps something like a "foreign qualified lawyer"? And just to avoid spamming with multiple posts: Thank you very much! You are always extremely helpful and an irreplaceable source of information! [/QUOTE]
