When you have to work for 12-14 hours in a day, being able to fit in with the people - the culture of the place - becomes very crucial.
Having studied in a convent school, when I was searching for colleges, I used to hear from people that “Christ University” is extremely strict, they don’t allow this and that etc etc. (I didn’t attend Christ)
But later I realised for people who have not studied in convent schools and who are not used the system of strict discipline, this can be very shocking change. I ended up joining a separate college, and the culture there was extremely distressing for me because the environment was so laid back, people would often behave in whatever way they felt. Also, that sense of purpose, of willingness to succeed, the interest in actually dissecting, analysing and reading law - not for the sake of marks or a job - but to really delve into the law - that we often missing. I’m not saying people who are not from convent schools can’t do this, but generally I’ve seen convert schooling does help.
I know this may sound elitist for lot of folks. But from a law firm perspective, which law firms are known to attract convent school graduates who have grown up trained in a certain way and cherish their school values and history even now.
