but im sure when you register with the solicitors regulation authority you need to write down if any criminal convictions, cautions or warnings? would a caution for theft or something affect your chances? - which was around 3years ago

You might need to get additional references testifying your suitability to be a solicitor and will have an earlier deadline for sending off your application, but you should be fine. Go to the SRA's website for more info

Go to the SRA's web-site and enrol as a student member ASAP. This is something distinct from getting a place on the LPC - the SRA is the regulatory body.

Don't know about the LPC stuff I'm afraid. If in doubt, ring up and ask.
