Not having the GDL will not impact your career - it’s is not a requirement for the career and it has only been a regulatory hurdle to obtain rather than anything firms value.You may want to reach out to future or current trainees at Bakers who have done this route to get their thoughts. I know it is very different to a lot of other firms who feel the GDL will be a better foundation for passing the SQE, but I don’t know if Bakers or BARBRI can provide any insight into how their pass rates are going for non lawyers who take this course.
