“Hi Legal Cheek. Please keep anon. I want to know if any of your readers have asked for more money when it comes to their SQE maintenance grant. I don’t have TC yet but the types of firms I am looking to apply to make you study in London and I worry I won’t be able to survive on the £12k-£15k available. Do people get jobs to supplement this?”
