Just a quick question that I can't seem to find an answer to - is there a time limit on securing a training contract after passing your FE1's?

FE1 results are valid for 5 years. I think that means you have to start ppc1 within 5 years of passing the last exam. However I have heard anecdotally that it is possible to apply to the Law Society for an extension if you get a traineeship just out side the time limit.

+1 on the five years, that's what I heard.
