Funding choice: GDL -> LLM (Law Conversion) or BPTC -> LLM Bar Vocational Studies

Hi I'm a non-law UK grad.

I am an aspiring barrister, and like most people, money is not on my side.

I am keen to use an 'LLM' to access masters funding, either doing an LLM (Law Conversion) instead of a GDL, or when I take the BPTC (after completing a GDL or equivalent), pimping that out to an LLM. At City, it's called 'LLM Bar Vocational Studies (with specialism)'.

The government only gives funding for one masters level degree, so if I took the LLM (Law Conversion), I would complete the standard BPTC vice versa.

Thanks in advance.
