Thank you to Frankie Perren Smith from the u_law who visited truro_college today. During the guest talk Frankie explained the different courses available at level 4-6 and then postgraduate with particular reference to the Masters in Law, Bar School and SQE provision 🗣️ There were important questions asked in terms of how could the police improve reporting rates? Students viewed statistics of public faith in the police on the reporting of certain offences, with homicide being high and vandalism being the lowest. There was also further discussion on the role of the media in creating moral panics in crime ⚖️ #tcbatle #trurocollege #truroandpenwithcollege #guestspeaker #universityoflaw #lookfurther #reachfurther #gofurther
“📚⚖️ If your body doesn’t make it, what’s the point? 💭” Honored to speak at the University of Law for the second time, challenging students to rethink their priorities. Too often, we sacrifice our health in the name of success - grinding non-stop, neglecting rest, and forgetting that we can’t pour from an empty cup. Your education matters, but so do you. Success means nothing if you’re too burnt out to enjoy it. Appreciate yourself enough to make your health a priority. 💡💪 What’s one small way you can take better care of yourself this week? Let me know below! ⬇️ #levelup #healthiswealth #balance #selfworth #universityoflaw
Looking ahead! The second term of my LLM in legal practice with u_law kicks off tomorrow, focused on SQE 2 - •interviewing •legal research •case and matter analysis •advocacy •legal writing •legal drafting The course covers part of each of these topics every week, whereas the first term alternated between all the topic areas for the SQE 1. Ahead: - I have planned time around my full-time work and allocated time for studying each, making notes and doing the practical tasks (most important!) - As a trainee, I feel SQE 2 is my strongest half of the exams, with a lot of the tasks being part of my day to day life. I am very excited to get more focused learning from experts as my current knowledge has been on a trial by fire and learn as you go basis! - Advocacy is core to my role but makes me nervous so this really ‘brings home’ the importance of studying the SQE for my own learning and career, and not just to pass an exam. #sqe #universityoflaw #sqe2 #aspriringsolicitor #traineesolicitor #lookingahead
Concentrated on Real Estate today. 🏡 ⚖️ Exams are creeping up faster than expected. Slowly but surely ploughing through the revision 📚 #UniversityOfLaw #RealEstate #ExamPrep #StudyGram #DeskSetup #Stationery #LawStudents #LPC #LetsGo #AspiringSolicitor #FutureLooksGood #BookWorm #LawBooks
𝗧𝘂𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆 𝗦𝗲𝘀𝗵 💫📚 I have been suffering from a headache for two days straight but I can feel it slowly drifting away, thank god 🙌🏻 It now means I can get back on with studying again. Tonight, I’ve decided to do some more of dispute resolution. I’m enjoying this module - although still trying to get my head around everything! 🫠 I’ve decided to use a countdown video on YouTube to study for 1 hour at a time and then have a break. I’m hoping this will help me stay motivated! 😂 Roll on that cuppa tea break… ☕️😍 #UniversityOfLaw #TheLawPortal #StudyGram #DeskGram #DisputeResolution #Advocacy #LawGrad #Postgrad #StudySesh #Masters #StationeryAddict #FairyLights #CosyVibes #Student #LifeAsAStudent #AspiringSolicitor
🌟MASTERS🌟 So you might not know that alongside working full time as a paralegal in Local Government I also am studying part time online for my LPC and LLM in Professional Legal Practice! I LOVE learning and have always loved so in an educational setting as tests and exams have always encouraged me to learn better, though I know a lot of people prefer to learn outside of this setting through books and podcasts, so it truly isn’t for everyone 🧐 I would say the biggest factor in doing both at the same time is your time. I spend most of my time focussed outside of work on the LPC LLM and I’d say if you are considering this you do 100% have to commit. I haven’t seen my friends, travelled, or done as much of my hobbies as I would have liked but it’s worth it for me to take the next step! I am currently in my 2nd year coming up to my mid year exams in March, after which (if my calculations are correct) I will have completed the LPC and be left with only the Masters element from April-June🤓 Choosing u_law and their online campus was the best decision I could have made to assist my learning, and knowing that all the tutors and support staff will really go above and beyond to support is such a comfort especially with my ADHD. One last thing- you get out as much as you put in. I frequently engage with my tutors and get the best out of my degree because of this, so definitely make sure you engage as much as you can, especially if you choose the online campus 🤩 Thankfully, I have my trusty assistant (pictured) to sit there and remind me to take breaks occasionally 🐱 (Only kidding, she lies in my books and sits on my laptop as I’m working…)
Assessment dayssss! #england#uk#life#smile#exam#like#follow#share#teamwork#student#india#pakistan#pardes#fyp#explorepage#trending#viral#education#new#london#assessment#ulaw#stress#happiness
I’ve officially completed the LPC! 👐🏻 This was one of the key goals I wanted to achieve in 2024 and I couldn’t be more pleased to have done so! After two intense years, 12 course books, 13 folders, 15 exams, 1 Master’s Research Report, and countless sticky tabs - I’m overjoyed to share that I have successfully completed the Legal Practice Course with a Master’s in Professional Practice (LPC LLM) at The University of Law. It feels surreal to finally say these words, and I couldn’t be prouder to reach this milestone! The journey has been nothing short of transformative. The LPC not only deepened my knowledge of various areas of law and essential solicitor skills but also taught me invaluable lessons about my resilience, determination and commitment to pursuing a legal career. Balancing being a mum, a wife and working full time at law firms during the week was no easy feat, but it pushed me to manage my time effectively and embrace the challenges along the way. The experience has been demanding yet incredibly rewarding and I’m so grateful for the personal and professional growth it has brought and education is truly a privilege. ⚖️📚 I’m so excited for the journey and what 2025 will bring. #LPCLLM #LPCComplete #MasterofLaws #ULaw #LawStudent #MastersStudent #Grateful #Achievement #Inspired #AspiringSolicitor #Goals
So today I sat my penultimate exam on the LPC today… … and by far, the most difficult. I found the elective overall but found incredibly challenging yet enjoyable. I think for me it was more about getting my head around the terminology and getting into grips with it. I expected the exam to be difficult and it certainly did not disappoint. Having looked at past specimen papers and upon realising there were no advance documents prior to the assessment, I anticipated that some questions may not appear in the exam, and when I realised this to be the case, I was so relieved! Although I’m incredibly anxious and it’s the first time ever where I’ve come out of an exam and have no genuine feeling about whether I’ve done enough to pass or whether it’s a fail. I just don’t know. I can sit here and worry and eat myself up overthinking, but I know it won’t change the outcome. I’ve done all I can and that’s it. On reflection 💭 The worst part: waiting for the final LPC results to release and it won’t be until March 2025. The best part: Monday 19th December will be my final exam on the LPC and officially draw a close to the course (subject to passing these final two exams!) 😁 #LPCLLM #LPC #bankinganddebtfinance #ULaw #mastersstudent #lawstudent #lawelective #lawelectives
Yesterday I had the massive privilege of speaking at the University of Law 🤩 this was made possible by the brilliant UoLaw Campus Vice President kiyalamatanga 🙌🏾❤️ who created a truly impactful event. I thank for the incredible opportunity it was a true honour. This was my first time speaking at University, best believe I was riddled with nerves 😬 but God truly came through for me while I speaking 🙌🏾 and it ended being one of my best talks so far 🤩. Thank you to everyone that prayed for me and supported me!! Growing as a speaker has been testing but beautiful journey my advice to anyone that aspires to be a speaker is truly take advantage of any opportunity that will offer you a platform to speak, 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙥𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙚 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙪𝙣𝙘𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙚𝙙 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙜𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙨 IT’S TIME TO LEVEL UP!! 📈 ——— #speaking #levelup #universityoflaw

Month 1 ✅ Well, that absolutely flew by but simultaneously, it feels like I’ve far longer than just one month. I have never known a workload like it, and have only had one clear day off since starting. Not a ‘toxic productivity’ flex; just a reality of such a long reading list. I have already three practice assessments (opinion writing, conference and bail application, and drafting Particulars of Claim) with another deadline tomorrow. As daunting as they are, they have shown me that I have made the right decision in studying this course. I am loving every minute of it. A large part of that is to do with the people. I could not have asked for a better group to go through this with. I have made so many good friends already and I am proud of how far we have come in such a short space of time. I am now looking forward to reading week to take a breath and consolidate on everything that has been thrown at me.
