International Student considering GDL Programs ( wanting to pursue a legal degree)

hello, I am an international student considering GDL programs in the UK. I can speak English fluently and come from Pakistan. I went and did CS in my undergrad and want to switch to Law and can realistically only afford GDL 1 Year Programs. I am afraid that since I don't have a network in the UK , I am not likely to be able to get a TC in a UK Law firm which is the ultimate goal if I end up pursuing a GDL in the UK. Could you let me know if the GDL is a good idea then?

I was considering this program but other programs at City St George , ULAW etc also suffice. I just through Uni of York would have a better reputation

Should I pursue a GDL and I know a TC would be competitive but if I network well and do well in the GDL, am I likely to secure a TC?

Thank you so much!
