You just need an undergraduate degree or equivalent in any discipline to apply. The GDL only takes one year to complete, but the course will be very intensive, covering what LLB students studied over three years. On completion of the course, you will have covered the core areas of law and be ready for your next hurdle on the road to becoming a qualified lawyer: the LPC for the solicitor route or the BPTC for those bound for the Bar.
After choosing one of those two courses, it'll be time to start your training contract or pupillage, and before you know it you'll be a qualified solicitor or barrister.
