[QUOTE="RaniaH062002, post: 210721, member: 40014"] I applied for schemes/ TC’s starting in my 2nd year of uni albeit I’ve never took it seriously, same in 2024. This was my first year taking it seriously and I didn’t get anywhere. I’m turning 23 this year and I used to think that not getting a TC now means I’ll be ‘out of my prime’ when I may end up getting one years down the line with fresh graduates securing TC’s at the ages of 20. But I realise that’s just ridiculous and it’s unfair to compare myself to other people. I do feel very down about my rejections but I’m not going to give up! I mean it’s not the end for me, although I don’t work in a legally qualifying job I do work in a stable job as crown court clerk, I’m currently doing my Law Conversion Course (Master’s) with BPP and I’m prepping to take the SQE1 next year in the summer. And it’s not the end for everyone else either! You can get thousands of rejects but we only need one yes to move forward. Am I correct that the application cycle for the majority of firms begin in October/November? I’m going to make it my mission to start prepping early. [/QUOTE]
