Routes to qualification

Hi everyone!

So Ive managed to get myself super confused with routes to qualifying and I’m hoping someone can help me.

I started my law degree before 2021, therefore was eligible to still take the LPC. I have opted for the LPC rather than SQE route.

I understand that taking the LPC was an option for me until 2031 (10 years after starting my degree) but do I also need to find a TC and qualify before 2031, or am I good to just make sure I obtain the LPC before 2031 and then I can still get the experience and qualify after?

I also understand the TC route may look a bit different in a few years and I may have to take SQE 2, but could someone just help me understand if I’ve got a time limit on qualifying?

Thank you!
