✨🌟MY LPC CERTIFICATE ARRIVED🌟✨ ⁣ ⁣ I’m so excited to have finally received my LPC certificate from u_law!! Studying the LPC full time alongside working 2 jobs (completely my choice) and then all electives during the lockdown meant it was one of the most challenging years of my life! ⁣ ⁣ I don’t know if I’ve shared this before, but when I started my LPC, I still had my paralegal job and I decided to move home to save money to a new house in a new place I’d never lived in🏡 (my parents moved in my 3rd year of undergrad) and I got another job working in bar to try and help make some new friends. Pretty much everyone told me I’d taken on too much - a woman at work who’d completed her LPC actually put bets on in the office that I’d either quit the LPC or my jobs by the end of October!! At the time it upset me and I definitely stressed that I’d bitten off more than I could chew BUT are after a lot of early mornings and late nights, huge amounts of organisation and dedication, I not only passed, didn’t quit anything but with also got a DISTINCTION!!💫🥂⁣ ⁣ If someone tells you that you can’t do something - don’t let it get you down but instead have the determination to prove them wrong!!💪🏻😜💜 ⁣ ⁣ Lots of you are studying the LPC - here are my top tips:⁣ 📍Key to success is in the preparation. Work hard but work smart. Create useful tables and checklists ready for the open book exams. ⁣ 📍Pay attention and make good workshop notes. ⁣ 📍Do the reading and properly prepare for every workshop. ⁣ 📍Show up. I juggled a million things and still didn’t miss a single workshop. ⁣ 📍Enjoy it. I found it so much more interesting that my LLB. ⁣ ⁣ Off to go put this on the wall underneath my Law degree💓 - a little reminder everyday that I achieved THAT!💫💛💛 ⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ #lpc #LPC #ulaw #postgrad #law #lawstudent #achievement #lawdegree #futuretrainee⁣
