Did the BPTC, switching to the solicitor route

Hey everyone!

I had initially embarked on the barrister route. However, during the course and my experience during mini-pupillages, I realised I am better suited for a career as a solicitor.

Given that I have already been Called to the Bar, I was just wondering if:
(a) I would need to do the LPC or if I would be exempt from it;
(b) anyone has had a similar experience to mine, and would be willing to offer some guidance on how best to approach the TC applications to justify this position.

Thank you!
