[QUOTE="trainee4u, post: 212939, member: 30779"] There's a difference between permanent employment where you might provide an untrue cover story about why you are taking time off but still fulfil your contractual obligations, and being paid £500 for a week's work but only turning up for four days. In the context of a 5-10 day vacation scheme, as you say, they will know what's up and discard you as dishonest and/or not committed. I wasn't suggesting everyone who has ever lied will get struck off, just pointing out that dishonesty is a dealbreaker for entering the legal profession, and getting into the habit of it is a bad idea.
