hear hear Ad. and Molly too. glad that people are thinking along the same lines. i think someone needs to apologise to music students :) kenno1888 - do you honestly think your law degree would equip you for the scenario you presented?? i doubt it. the training you get for something like that is in blackhall, not from books that you studied in college.
LDGantly, i would agree with your point about apprenticeships alright. it would certainly deter people if they knew they had to obtain an apprenticeship first before sitting the exams. but it wouldn't be fair to those so interested in becoming a solicitor that they don't mind taking the risk in the hope they'll get one after the exams. the way things are at the moment i know for definate that i wouldn't be sitting them if i didn't have an apprenticeship lined up. it might also make people actually apply for secretarial positions in law firms and give them some experience. that's how i started out. incidently, my friend is in blackhall at the moment and she has commented that she can't believe how much the legal secretaries know compared to others who had just come from college. its these people that should be commended as a lot of them have passed the exams while working full- time. just gets on my nerves how narrow-minded some people are but it's ironic as the law is one of those areas where you should be completely open-minded. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "FE-1 Study Group" group.
