LPC providers freeze course fees

This may not be strictly related, but I'm about to start my last year of my law degree and am wondering, if I don't get accepted for any of the training contract's I've applied for this summer (beginning 2012/13) is it worth doing the LPC? I really really want to become a qualified solicitor but I'm not sure I can do it at the expense of £10,000 or so, with a possibility of two years of my life being put on hold waiting for a training contract (if I'm not successful this year, but am next year), or, worse, still, with no sign of a training contract at all at the end of it? I know times are hard for those wanting to get into law, but they're hard everywhere right? Is going forward with law really as foolish as everyone says or is it just on a par with going with any other career option right now?
