But desperately lousy advice informed by your own biases. Anyone who chooses academia straight over JLC is not wrong because to each his own but most would find that the converse is equally good if not much better. And anyone who has a practical bent would be crazy to follow your absurd advice and aspire to academia. As for baker and CC, these are decent options but certainly not for everyone.
True. Almost all young academics have practised for a little while, if only merely to clock their TC to get called. Even better if you get JLC - a stint with the judiciary is the ultimate portfolio enhancer in the legal industry regardless of whether you're an academic or practitioner.
