[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 143637, member: 2672"] This will echo some of the points from both threads on this but: Either course will give you easier access to the U.K. job market, not because they make your application stronger, but because they give you rights to work in the U.K. out of term time and give you the option to then pursue a postgraduate visa. As mentioned in other posts, they also buy you time to apply for vacation schemes (although these can be tricky depending on your term dates) and TCs. But put frankly, this is probably one of the most expensive ways you can buy this time. Neither course will really give you the practical skills to succeed as a lawyer in the U.K.. This will really only come with experience as a trainee. However, they could give you further knowledge of the English legal system which could be helpful with passing the SQE - however the more specialist the course, the less transferable that knowledge will be.
