"I'm currently doing a training contract at a magic circle firm - I really like the atmosphere, am keen to work for them and best of all, they seem to like me. However, I have always wanted to be a barrister. I did all the necessary CV garnishing while I was at university - mini-pupillages, debating, mooting etc, but I decided to apply for a TC instead because I didn't want to ask for financial help from my parents and I was scared off the Bar because qualifying is so expensive and uncertain.
