Otherwise, there's no difference between NLSIU and HNLU. The creme de la creme of both (who're like worse than the average at Law School) are hired by Dua, Titus and all. I work at a respectable firm and the difference between NALSAR kids and the rest is so evident, its astonishing. - Anonymous guest Tue, 18 May 2010 10:26:52 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-6554 diz entire debate of x law school vs. y law school iz all "sound n fury"!!!ultimately it boils down to d ability of d individual student!!!!letz have a constructive debate o any important topic,guyz!!!!wat say??????????? - Anonymous guest Sun, 16 May 2010 04:28:09 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-6552 What are NLS's LLM numbers this year? - Anonymous guest Sun, 16 May 2010 03:54:00 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-6303 it is really unfortunate that the debate abt law schools in India boils down to only 'nls- nalsar- nujs' fundamentalism. has the establishment of these law schools served the purpose they intended to? it is not exaggeration- the indian law students are an abberant products of the indian schooling system. globalization saved them. - Anonymous guest Thu, 13 May 2010 12:27:57 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-6293 The entire conversation has been very delightful. great to know the actual views of different poeple.. - Jayani Shah Thu, 13 May 2010 09:28:26 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-2655 @ #62: You claim to be "AN" NLS alumnus, and you can't even use basic grammar properly?

It is indeed rather surprising to compare colleges that have been running for years to one that is barely half a year old. Of course like every new enterprise, it too tries to portray the image that it wants to be in the contention of the top spot. When has friendly competition ever done any harm ? Our country needs more institutions to impart good education and giving new colleges a chance is better than snubbing them for reasons like fees and location. I mean seriously, how insecure are you guys ?? It would take some time for the college to build up a reputation and finally get the recognition it duly deserves. Yes, we do know that it would be very hard to be one of the top 3 law schools and we are taking our steps cautiously. One last thing, financial levels has nothing to do with "academic diligence". - Anonymous Mon, 15 Feb 2010 22:19:26 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-2500 With goodwill towards one and all... In the longer run and in the end it doesn't really matter which law school one come's from. There's always room at the top. Knowledge is power and if a person is talented then he or she can rise to the top, although it may take a longer time period and grads from well established law schools do have a head start. For those who don't make it to the top, there's not much to worry about. There's plenty of room for everyone in terms of placements. What matters is how dedicated one is in what one is doing. P.S. Criticising this comment will not help you live a better life, hard work will :-) - Anonymous Mon, 08 Feb 2010 09:58:52 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-2474 I agree with you that it is unfair to compare two law schools, namely Amity and JGLS. I also agree that JGLS looks as a promising prospect. However, I cannot endorse your sentiment, which seems to disparage Amity Grads. While it is true that we do not get the opportunity of campus placements as NLS does, several of us go into litigation (often out of choice, many of my fellow Amity colleagues are also in the lower judiciary), even keeping in mind the long gestation period many of our graduates by most accounts are doing well. For those of my colleagues who were intent on corporate they have slowly worked there way into top tier Indian and Global law firms. It takes us time but we do get there. At the end every law school has its own flavor, comparing it only by the type of placements in a certain type of firm based on the pay package would be a flawed approach. I wish all the best to JGLS since I am an ardent believer in the capacity of private enterprise and hope it reaches the top. - Anonymous Sat, 06 Feb 2010 13:03:59 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-2473 Infantile arguments… just makes me wonder whether u people are actually capable of some common sense. Let me begin by saying something which otherwise I would have kept in the end. There is no significant difference between a Delhi Law fac grad or a NLS grad. If at all there is some it is perhaps more due to the environ and milieu of a NLS than anything else. Which is why I am horribly surprised to see folks singing about the infrastructure, faculty, placements and seniors (read: partners in law firm). Enough. And also the tags - most notably the Big 3. By the way who coined this Big 3 or rather copied/ inspired… whatever? The self acclaimed BIG 3?, I am sure many of you would be gunning to show me the LST or India Today ratings. Well, grow up as you are no more vying for a slot in a law school, rather you are already there or thereabout. We most of us know what, when, why and how these ratings are done… nothing extraordinary about it… remember even a saif or a chatwal can get padma awards. For those still pondering… you are in the wrong field… stop masquerading. I write because I am at loss to see you wasting time and energy in criticizing each other’s law school. Actually, life is not just all about the NLS tag or which law school did u go to?... its much more … probably more than what you had initially bargained for. Amarchand, luthra or E&Y is just a stopover… the quest is beyond… By the way, I am a NLS grad (2007)… have worked in the topmost law firm in India and currently in one of the Big 4 consultancy. And there is nothing official about it. It’s OK to remain normal and carry some sense. - Anonymous Sat, 06 Feb 2010 11:18:25 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-2410 hey just stop making such remark that damage the reputation of ur institutes,all those who r crying over best debate should need to know the one thing that is to compare things on ground of which law school students has done anything worth good for country,the main objective with which these law school were set to produce legal brains that can do good for country as well as for suffering humanity,we r not doing anything good but we r joining lavish law firms,we r such helplee bugs who r wasting our national resources,on this ground we can say that all law schools have failed,in this parameter decide which nls is best and which one is best..........lets continue it. - Anonymous Fri, 05 Feb 2010 01:33:58 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-2391 This is clearly quite a slugfest, here. I think at some basic level, there is little to differentiate NLS, NALSAR and NUJS - other than the fact that the top tier of the students giving the CLAT join NLS. Now, the merits of that test or lack thereof aside, there is a clear reputation that NLS enjoys that makes students want to join here. But NUJS and NALSAR are also very much coveted, and I think this is doing good things for legal education - whether it is in litigation or in corporate law. As for JGLS' much vaunted faculty, I just noticed that Charles G. Maddox (an LLM candidate from NLS) is now an Assistant Professor. And while another, Abhayraj Naik is probably the smartest person I know, collectively the faculty isn't quite worth 7 lakhs. Not to mention, the students getting in are likely to be less academically diligent and more financially well off. And I think the point that some people were trying to make was that people had more of a choice as to the nature of the job they wanted to take. And I think there's nothing wrong with that, or promoting it. I'm sorry if some of my fellow NLS-ites come across as arrogant to you. That being said, I'm glad that NALSAR, NUJS and NLS are competing - it'll bring the best out of all 3, and there isn't anything wrong with that. - Anonymous Thu, 04 Feb 2010 14:54:27 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-2389 # 51 "those figures aren't exact because we don't care too much about them".. riiight.. you, obviously, have got the absolute grasp of the discussion there!! hate to break to you mate, but the "error" was a slight over-sight in the reporting by Kian.. (hardly anything to do with the university?).. and, well, those who sat for recruitment certainly 'did' care about those figures.. "our question before recruitment is what kind of work we would like to do".. as compared to the common practice in other law schools where an arbitrarily chosen council is appointed to prepare a randomized list of career options and then thrust down the applicants' throats. all detractors are shot in the back (or, in the rarest of rare cases, subjected to your arguments). jeez, why didn't students at my law school think of this fancy recruitment strategy! - Anonymous Thu, 04 Feb 2010 14:10:36 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-2388 @ # 53 thanks, but no thanks. advice really, really not solicited. whoever needs it, will no doubt come running to you - now that you've emerged, hands down, as the champion of this cause. until then, maybe us fools - the "lesser" law students - would like to while away our jobless little lives expressing an opinion, but just an opinion i assure you, every now and then. please, lets not make this a bragging session. the less said, the better. the points you made, and a few others, are common to a few law schools. just because you seem to be oblivious to the achievements of other law schools gives you no better right to take a high ground. "the top 57 students".. erm.. so one student scores half a mark more than another in an entrance exam on account of, say, a question on general knowledge.. as per your reasoning, the student with the half a mark more would no doubt make a much better lawyer - hands down? no "comparisons" drawn? lay out the red carpets, for our lords are here? irrespective of which law school he studies at, just as long as he's at NLS? lol.. i hope you see the many flaws in that theory.. (but then again, judging by your arguments - i really am not sure. ask around a little, indulge yourself.) anyhow, this debate has reached a point of futility now. your arrogance, on the other hand, seems to know no bounds. if you really think you're at the top, a better way to pretend would be to at least act like it. if we really are exchanging advice here, words for you to hold dear - please. it's time now. get over yourselves. - Anonymous Thu, 04 Feb 2010 13:56:17 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-2387 congragulations! if ur nos truly represent the 'hard' facts, if not better luck next time! nonetheless, it is apparent jgls propoganda seems to meander through some of the posts - Anonymous Thu, 04 Feb 2010 12:29:56 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-2381 Why people are so obssesed here ? For jgls guys dude always remember its the students who makes the college. I know few toppers of top law schools of the country and i can assure you its only average guys who brag. Toppers are in a different world altogether and that is the reason they are toppers. Dude have you ever heard Sachin, Zidane,federer,schumacher bragging about themselves? You all are in best law schools of the country to become the best lawyers of the country.

It will be great if other NLUs try to make their own road rather than follow the one made by NLSIU. But any comparison with the "leader" so far is not worth it..!! Happy recruitments to all. - Anonymous Thu, 04 Feb 2010 08:00:36 +0100 http://www.legallyindia.com/20100128423/Law-schools/indian-uk-recruiters-scoop-48-nls-bangalore-5th-years#comment-2370 ha ha..impressive.. however, 1. NLS is the best not because of when it was created or who made it or who teaches here but because the top 57 students who want to do law come here. 2. wrt moots etc., as i mentioned, perhaps you should compare international preformances too!!! i assure you we are heads and shoulders above the rest. further, most indian moots etc. are attended by first and second years and they still manage to win usually!! further, in debates, NLS is perhaps one of the best colleges in the country and amongst the top 3 in asia.. there is no way any other college can begin to "compete" with us.. 3. its not arrogance- its advice- stop comparing.. - Anonymous Thu, 04 Feb 2010 07:01:19 +0100
