I withdrew from my LPC yesterday, I couldn't stand the boredom any longer!!!

I am applying for a PhD to start in January, hope I get accepted!

Accounts wasn't too difficult, neither was Tax, which parts are you having trouble with?


The whole concept of accounts really. Don't find tax too bad. But just don't understand whats meant to go in accounts at all. I think our textbook is crap.

did you have accounts for solicitors?

I understand it when the lecturers go through it but have complete mental block when reading it in the book.

Accounts is pass / fail isn't it? If it is I'll survive but if I'm meant to get more than a pass then I'm screwed.

Don't you want to be a solicitor anymore? I'm scarily quite enjoying parts of the LPC.

i find accounts hard too, think its something that you just have to practice and practice and practice until it clicks...! its so annoying that its closed book though. its one of those things aswell, where, if you have a mental block thats it, youve basically failed cos if you put one thing in the wrong place it wont add up etc.

we're using that maroon coloured book and i find it really confusing!
