Abstract

Rethinking Diploma admissions In their article "Diploma admissions: a thorny issue" (Journal, July 2023, 41), Kerry Trewern and David Boag carefully set out the difficult balance in dealing with applications to the Diploma in Professional Legal Practice. As they note, demand in recent years far
exceeds the available Diploma places. This leads to many disappointed applicants. The appropriateness of the admissions process to the Diploma therefore carries significant consequence.
