The latter isn’t true right? I’m pretty sure if you’ve done the LPC that’s it, you don’t need to go down the SQE route.

I think it depends on when you start and finish the LPC and whether you already secured a training contract by a certain date, but I can't speak to the specifics of it at all.
I wish I booked for next week but when I checked there weren't any slots available T_T I'm thinking I might email graduate recruitment and ask them because it is the day after tomorrow and I haven't heard anything from them :/
You could try emailing them politely for an update. Their GR Head is very active on LinkedIn, so I guess they might reply on email quickly perhaps?
If you do and you hear and they let you know anything about the duration of the day let me know. If I've not heard by end of the day tomorrow I'll probably call GR and ask because I need to take leave from work...
I’ve checked the SRA website and that’s definitely not true. You pick one or the other, there’s no crossover, that would just be messy for everyone involved.
I had an AC on the 25th Feb (the final AC for a direct-TC application - literally the final hurdle). They said they're aiming to get back to us the following week but because they're very busy this cycle they're saying they'll get back to us by mid-March. At what stage is it reasonable to email and ask for an update? (I'm DYING). The day went AWFULLY so I know I didn't get it but I pretty much need closure for the motivation to do more applications.
Same here! Pleasantly surprised as I applied on the last day.
Unfortunately I'd probably wait a bit longer (probably end of next week) before asking for an update. You never know though it could be positive!
Would you mind me asking which firm this was for?
Same!! Absolutely shocked, I didn’t think my application was all that strong and very last minute!
I applied on the last day like you guys as well! Very surprised too and wasn't sure as the app was so brief. Well done though!
The SRA has this little decision tree which lets you know what you would need to do if you have completed LPC or not. Might be of use
If you have begun any of the three bulleted things before either 1 or 21 September 2021 you can choose either route. If you do not end up securing a TC and want to qualify under the SQE route with qualifying work experience, you would have to complete the SQE 2 on top of the LPC.
Long story short, its complicated. https://www.sra.org.uk/students/sqe/transitional-arrangements/
DAC Beachroft VI, really wasn't expecting this!
Congratulations! Do you mind if I ask if you applied to the TC direct or the VS?
I’m pretty sure the VS is part of the TC recruitment process, could be wrong however!
