Notes

I've taken out the weasel words while trying to back up the points that the contributors have made. I can see that there is an argument for not having a section about 'controversy' at all. I think it's best to keep it in though because the LPC is enormously unpopular amongst students, mostly because it is expensive and somewhat dry.

The comment on the environment looks spurious, but in fact the original contributor was right that the course uses up a quite incredible amount of paper. I have put it in with the 'controversy' section though, because it is not a very important point and should not have a section by itself.

Added NPOV/Weasel tags due to spuriously worded criticisms in the controversy section,

Many of these criticisms utilise weasel words and fail to cite any reference/source.

I know that in the past there has been talk of abolishing the LPC... does anyone know anything about this? If so, it might be worth adding?

Also, does anyone know the system in Scotland, a linked on that would probably be useful.

I put the criticism of the electives element of the course in 'controversy surrounding the lpc' because it looks as if the first part of the article was meant to be factual only, with 'controversy' only discussed later on. It's good to have the criticisms in there though!

This article could be useful for someone thinking about taking the LPC, so I think it's a good idea to keep the first part of it factual only to make it clearer.

The section on how to apply is not an advertisement. The LPC is not profit making. It is a qualification. Wikipedia is a great source of information - that includes practical information.

Hi everyone, I've just included a link and a few references to a website I came across, Allaboutlaw, that has been wrote by students at the LPC providers themselves. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.152.2.103 (talk) 21:44, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I also think we should put up references to the law schools from the site as they've covered all of the ones that are listed on the page. Want to run it past others first though. Let me know what you think, you can view the part of the site I'm talking about here, http://allaboutlaw.co.uk/courses.aspx?section=28. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.152.2.103 (talk) 21:47, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Changes to the LPC have finally been approved by the Solicitors' Regulation Authority and as such the structure of the LPC will be changing significantly over the next year or two. Some institutions will be offering the new format LPC from The 2009-10 academic year and as such, the information in this article will soon be out of date in some respects. I will have a go at making the changes if I have time but details can be found at http://www.sra.org.uk/students/lpc.page Lukemicallef (talk) 13:30, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A new section on the future of the LPC

Hello,

I think this wiki page could do with a short section added on the future of the LPC, with the introduction of the SQE a year away. I think it would make for a beneficial addition to this page. Happy to hear thoughts on this from experienced wiki editors.

Thanks, HEwonk (talk) 15:46, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
