[QUOTE="dannyp123, post: 241208, member: 37628"] First of, I think it's great that you are trying to break into this tough career. However, I do think that there are a few things to consider. The university brand name does matter, despite what people say being from a target uni (which tend to have in-person LLBs) do represent a large proportion of trainee cohorts. There are of course many non-target uni trainees but these are less common for whatever reason (I am not saying non-target unis are any less valuable but that this seems to be how trainee cohorts are comprised). I would say the University of Law's online LLB (particularly for undegraduate) does fall into this non-target category. I think the best option would be to be patient. I don't know how old you are but try getting a job which demonstrates transferrable skills to being a solicitor or even better trying to get a job at a law firm. This way you can earn money and build up your CV. I do think that this would be a much more productive option than potentially spending money and equally importantly time on an online degree which may not improve your employability prospects in the UK. Best of luck with your journey! [/QUOTE]
