How to qualify as a lawyer in Britain?

In order to qualify as a lawyer in the UK, in addition to obtaining a British law degree, you should also take the CPE (General Vocational Examination) exam, study the LPC (Legal Practice Course) 1 year and pass the exam, and finally work in a local law firm in the UK for two years. There are generally two ways for overseas students to obtain this qualification: one is LLB→LPC/BVC, that is, when studying for a bachelor's degree in law in a British university, they can study and take LPC directly without taking CPE exam. Second, LLM →CPE →LPC/BVC. After graduating from a British university with a master's degree in law, you need to study CPE 12 course 1 year and pass the exam, then study LPC course 1 year and pass the exam, and finally work in a local British law firm for two years. As long as you pass the CPE exam, it is easy to find a local law firm to sponsor the tuition and living expenses of studying LPC, but you must sign a work contract with this law firm for several years.
