How many EICRs in a day?

[NickD]

Just ragging you Nick, sometimes the opportunities present themselves.
I always thought a diploma was a bit down from a degree though

A GDL is not a degree cos you don't study the lawmaking of Timon of Athens in the 2nd century BC and etc. but the Law Society considers the two the same. Probably law graduates rage about GDL 5WWs as well, but plenty of people with no law degree have gone very far in the legal profession.

Either way, you'd still have to do the LSF/Bar finals to be able to claim full qualification as a solicitor/barrister

Yeah, you have to do either accredited law degree or GDL; then for the solicitor route it's a year's Legal Practice Course (LPC) which is about joy like what form to fill in when, then you need to join a firm on a training contract for two years, then you can go for your Articles. Long and winding road without necessarily a lot of money at the end unless you're prepared to work hundred-hour weeks doing the kind of law you probably never wanted to do, making money for people with too much money already who you'd rather see up against the wall when the revolution comes.
