I'm still confused! Which is the better route?

just to confirm a-levels are very important, i am doing the lpc have a llb law 2.1 llm and loads of extra stuff but bad a-levels and i am getting rejection and after rejection, it very hard to keep motivated like this, finding it near impossible to revise for the exams at the moment, :frown:

What university did you go to?

yes id agree with the alevel point...... at the end of the day if the choice is between candidate x and candidate y and their academics at uni etc are similar then a level grades are going to come into play.

I noticed your alevels in a different thread, what subjects did you do? Would you be able to quickly revise the course and enter yourself into the summer exams?

Sorry, I'd like to ask another question, what happens if you applied to do a CPE and you couldn't get a place? Is this a common thing to happen? Do they take students to do the CPE course readily, or is it very competitive?

Thanks :smile:

I think this will depend a lot on the university. Some probably fill up in the first round of applications, while others will struggle to find enough students to fill the places - my course certainly isn't full.
