    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    h1 - that all seems fine. On the password issue - my son has not downloaded as (same as you) it says you need a password so he cannot even download it unopened as suggested to be done in advance. I agree with you that being ready 10 mins before to download should be fine - that is what my son is...

    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    Good point about Archive above and the other advice. Now the twins have now done the 5 exams including the 2 today they seem to have the hang of it. So on to Drafting tomorrow which is not proctored. The 20 December email from BPP is about that exam. People will have that email, the Briefing...

    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    I hope everyone is doing fine. My twins leave their mobiles outside the two rooms with the door closed for the exams (one is in a room upstairs and one is down in our house). There has been no internet cutting out so far that they have noticed either, even though that happens most days here...

    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    It looks like tomorrow morning is the part of civil litigation which is not and the afternoon ( 3pm) the MCQs going by the timings. My twins feel it would have been better just to have one very long exam starting at 10am. The result of splitting it into two means you have to be energetic at...

    SQE or GDL

    I would go for your option 2 (not least because bigger London law firms are putting people in for the PGDL and then SQE) and money is not such an issue for you and you plan to be a solicitor in the UK. Do look at law firms' websites for time deadlines too as they will often recruit people...

    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    The internet is annoying here. It just went down again and my son said it was down (each time is very very briefly) often yesterday and on both our separate BT broadband lines. I have just reminded him about the Inspera code if you are cut off. There is probably at least a 50% chance it will go...

    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    Just to let people know, there is a 7 Jan email from BPP. headed Exams and is about using your BPP email address and password to login which I believe we already know and if you cannot see when you log in to Inspera your upcoming exams you need to email Inspera (not BPP) and reminding people...

    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    I agree with h1 as the webcam will be on your face probably not looking over all the desk below really. One of my twins just did his Inspera test of the system today including the test ID check and room scan. He said it was fairly simple. The software closed down all his other programmes that...

    One of my sons says those whoa re doing it in person have now just been told where it is - somewhere in Waterloo. I presume they had an email today.

    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    For those doing the online proctored exams starting next Monday I was just looking at the Inspera Exam Portal User Guide for the proctored exams - your main guide for next week's exams. Random thoughts below- I would have ready on the day:- 1. Your BPP student card (or driving licence if you...

    Yes, very bad timing with exams a week today... The Hub says" Please note: we have received reports that some students may be experiencing issues when logging into the Hub. We are aware of it and are working to resolve this as soon as possible. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause".

    How Important Are A-Levels?

    I don't think the different career for 10 years and then try again is worth the waste of time that might be in terms of getting on with your life and career. Perhaps try for smaller or non-London firms with commercial law departments and try to move through those kinds of firms as a qualified...

    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    My son also said the Hub was down or slow yesterday (he wanted to watch one of the lecture videos for revision, but I think looked at other material instead due to the problem with the Hub). That is one reason that son (with the Apple Mac laptop for the exams ) looked at the Inspera Guide for...

    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    I just managed to pin one of the twins down about Inspera. I am calling it the "I" word in this house as they think I am nagging them about it and one is calling me good humouredly his "personal tutor" (not that I have looked at any of the real law work so I am not being too bad). Today a few...

    BPP Accelerated LPC (Consortium firms)

    Ah, I see. I hope it is not too bad for those doing it. I certainly warned my younger 3 lawyer children off it (their older sibling was not required to do it by her law firm either) as I had heard it was quite concentrated and tough (albeit it you get the course over with sooner). One of my two...

    BPP Accelerated LPC (Consortium firms)

    4 of my children have done or are doing the non-accelerated one and I am a lawyer, not that any of that makes me an expert. I am afraid a lot of my children would say not everyone does all the preparation work and still can do pretty well without it, not that I would ever encourage anyone to...

    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    In both Outlook and the virtual learning environment (VLE) (I think the VLE is not much used. If you click on 31 Jan 2022 - the first day in 2022 for my sons at least that has an SGS we can see it there (Solicitors Accounts in their case). if you cannot see yours it may be worth raising a query...

    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    Yes, sorry - week off week of 14 Feb for those assessments so no seminars week of 14th (and the 14 January is the Drafting exam). I have corrected my post above so as not to confuse people. I suspect that week of 14 Feb might be around half term week time which might be why it is structured...

    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    1. Do check your BPP emails as there is a recent one about the exams along the lines of what I posted above. It does set out when you can test the IEP - proctored Inspera (do it at least 3 days before the exams ie by 7 Jan). I believe you can only test it once for 20 minutes and you have to...

    BPP LPC help. 3Days?

    I will keep posting for current LPC students as long as it is still useful. Now on the Hub: 1. New document this week - important information for students sitting the drafting assessment in January (the only non-proctored Jan. exam) - this is a new email on the Announcements section giving...
