Business MA = future NQ position?
Should I only apply for firms that offer bespoke business MA courses to enhance my career and ensure an NQ position on qualification?
I am going to start my LPC in September and don’t as yet have a training contract lined-up. But after attending an event recently I’m starting to think it might really be worth doing some sort of business MA before starting my TC. Although I couldn’t afford it, I wondered if people thought it was worth just applying to those firms that offer those bespoke courses i.e. Simmons, SJ Berwin etc? Or would it be silly to limit my options?

I am hoping to get a training contract at Simmons because of its MBA as it just seems too good an opportunity to miss. That said I also applied for firms without this option because I didn't want to narrow my options - and give my self only 4 chances of achieving a TC!! 10 applications gives me better odds!

Hi,
I have just registered on this website and being my curious self, I have a question. Trouble is, I can't find a link to post the question. May I ask your help to direct me to the link ... may be I am missing something glaringly obvious ?
Many Thanks
