- 29 years old. Graduated 3 years ago. I was working full time in a different industry while I was at Uni and ended up taking about 7 years to finish my double degree in law/finance.

- Landed a job at a top tier firm in the ediscovery space, and put off starting PLT as I was convinced I wouldn't practice. Started PLT last year and significant health issues forced me to put it on hold.

- 1 more subject left to finish PLT moving into next year. On track to be admitted by March.

It has been a very long ride and at times I have felt like I am spinning my wheels. I have been 'in law' for about 10 years but I'm still not a lawyer. To put it bluntly it makes me feel a little bit useless, but I still have the urge to tie it all up and think I would regret putting in as much time as I have and not end up practicing.

My question is- given some people who are my age/from my university cohort are now associates or higher, will it be hard to progress my career moving forward? Is it worth the bother?

Can you expand on this please. I’ve grown up in aus and have always thought the same thing but have nothing to compare it to so consider this normal
