Third six pupil Rebecca Vanstone on her longer than expected journey to tenancy

When I decided to start applying for a third six it was a bit like looking for a needle in a haystack. Although I am constantly told how common it is for pupils to complete a third (or fourth, fifth, even sixth) six these days, especially in Crime, there isn’t a great deal of information out there as to how to get one – although the third six section of the Bar Council website is an increasingly useful resource.
