From City firms dropping training contracts from offer holders after failing on their first attempt, to questions over whether the exams really equip candidates for life as a newly-qualified solicitor.
This week, The Lawyer asks – what the hell is going on? Catrin and Christian are joined by deputy editor Richard Simmons and reporters Lucy Floydd and Charlotte Lear to discuss the trials and tribulations of this new exam.
