awoken animal companion as a PC


Rules Questions


Hey everyone, new poster here so I don't know how to post rules and such for reference so please excuse that.
Ok, so I have read on other threads about people's ideas about using the bestiary entry as an awoken animal and adding class levels but I have a T-rex companion at Lvl 9 that I want to awaken and later use as a PC. Using the bestiary entry for that animal would be a bit devastating, especially after adding some class levels, and a big size jump but I want to use my Large size, 10HD(2hd from spell), magical beast(augmented animal) T rex. I know I would lose all special connections and him as an animal companion but my question is this...

How do I determine his starting level before leveling into core classes?

After reading into this I have found that I basically need to figure out its CR and use that as its current levels as Awoken Animal. I can't seem to determine its CR although I'm guessing around 7 or 8. Any guidance on these rules would be appreciated.
