Yes, I know that you should never compare yourselves with others on Instagram and Facebook.

Yes, I know that they may have fallen into a debt trap by taking large loans to fund these purchases.

Yes, I also know that they may be secondhand cars.

Yes, I know that these guys may have bought these cars only to improve their marriage prospects with Tinder dates.

But still… In a world where everyone judges you based on material possessions and brand, you do kinda feel bad ☹️ 😢

Hey, been there and done that. I quit my job in a teir 1 law firm in 3 months. I couldn't see myself working there in the long run. I wanted more work-life balance. I prepared for a few govt exams and got through. Currently working in the public sector ( legal officer, State govt). Quitting was the best thing I did, Now, I get to work at 9-10 and leave by 6 max in the evening. The pay is decent not as good as a lawfirm but not bad at all especially with other perks. I get a lot of time to spend withy family and I even live close to home. Also we do a lot of policy related work which was my interest anyway. In general my life and health improved a lot. However, I must warn you, preparing for govt exams can be exhausting and at times very stressful with a lot of uncertainty especially with very few vacancies and notifications coming erratically. I was lucky to give the exam and clear it. I have many friends who left law firms and couldn't clear judiciary and other govt exams and went back to corporate but lost on experience. So my advice is have a clear road map ahead on what is your plan is after quitting. Wish you all the best :)

I’ve worked with people from both colleges in my team. Here’s are my observations:

1. JGLS is by far the best college in India in terms of quality of faculty.

2. SLS is way ahead in terms of links with the industry (our partners are from SLS).

3. Firms recruit from SLS & JGLS in nearly equal numbers. That places SLS better because of their small batch.

This is my prespective of seeing things as a Archelogical evdiance says, There were no tools of variety in wepons found,There was a GAP of 400 years in betwenn no body could fill in and they said there is aryan Invasion taking into account of History by west. As this taken into account people also started stating that There is a language Zenda Avesta which is older than Vedic sanskrit which has very minor Pronounciation changes established the language in here stating that the vedic sanskrit was established after the Aryan invasion as the religious practises which is now called Hinduism was also established by foreigners (Aryans) and india was not having any Religion its basically evolution of zoroastrian but the Indus civilization was older than the Zoroastrian as the Archeological evidances cant get out more information as a Common public i see that people started saying these to laguages are close so they are basically like daughters to a parent laguage which we dont know and started filling the gaps with Western History as it suits the current situations but my point is If the aryans theory of invasion is wrong and migration is right then there is high chances of people of India allowed the aryans to stay with their set of rules not disturbing the rules and traditions that of ours if its an invasion why the people of this country who knows nothing accoding to (Western History) starts protecting if they dont have any religion or any way of living i am seeing this point as aryans vs Indians of this country so i agree with the aryans migration theory and to support that i say thats why we have minute changes in our traditions but not more by taking into account of people as communitites, "THIS IS TOTALLY MY VIEW" As the Aaryans Dont know anything about Varna system got to know about varna system of Indians which later GOT doveleped into caste System as they dont know anything about vedas. So his point JSD He is asking us Indians to look into the history of this country in This country Prespective rather than the Western Prespective to bring that awareness they are campaining

BE6E if you're fine with electric. Else VW or Skoda. Both basically have identical cars made on same platform. Servicing would be a bit expensive but the drive quality will be top-notch.

If I were you, I'd avoid Tata because of its frequent and long visits in the service center.

Didn't get an NLU and SLAT results are awaited.Financial situations are not good enough for JGLS. I'll be going to other law schools apart from those. How do I ensure a job at the end of my law school? I wanna get into a tier 1 corporate law firm.

Pls don't rant about the fact that you hate your corporate law job here and try to get me off the path.

Hi. I am currently into Commercial Litigation ... but thinking about changing my course of career by into corporate law practice and quit litigation. Can anybody please suggest as to what should be the correct approach about it and which are the firms that are going to be generous enough to accommodate somebody like me ?

I am currently in an NLU that is not highly ranked. However, I am staying near home and don’t have to deal with some of the issues my peers grapple with. I was planning to appear for CLAT again to get into a top NLU.

But from what I have heard, careers after law—especially in the corporate sector—are gruelling, and many people end up hating their jobs. Associates at firms like SAM, CAM, and Khaitan frequently complain about the long hours and the lack of stimulation in their work. This makes me wonder whether the fancy jobs that most law school students aspire to are really worth it.

Do people who earn great money, find their job satisfying, and lead a healthy life even exist?

Next question is whether this will be expanded to all LGBTQIA+ persons, considering that the Congress government had promised such reservation in their Maharashtra manifesto and Karnataka has a Congress government now.

Bro go in-house, give that law firm/partner the same shit that made you suffer ! give them short deadlines, yell at them, yes absolutely yell at them. Just make their life miserable.

I wont incite you for violence but I am on my way to cause them (seniors) serious injury to let them suffer for whole of their life.

This is India and this is how it works!!!

Are all of you NLU grads? Because I don't understand what's the obsession of this forum with NLUs. Glorifying NLUs in every posts and even misguiding juniors to retake clat in every college review posts. Only top 10 NLUs are good enough and below that it's not even worth it.People are even putting other law schools down even though it's not true. I'm at an NLU and have interned at various law firms and most of my seniors aren't even from NLUs. So my question is are you people all NLU graduates here and this forum is just a circlejerk of NLU grads with superiority complex? because only that justifies this behaviour.

I have a SAM PPO and I will advise you against sending emails like this. Partners and PAs get such emails far too often, which becomes annoying. The HR had specifically advised us against begging for PPOs. Instead, when speaking to them, make it clear that you are looking for a PPO. Be tactful in doing that. Do not beg.

Hi.. I am law graduate from delhi university and cleared my CS exams and also done 9 months of CS training in one of the top 200 listed company. Now i am not able to decide wheteher i should go with corporate field or switch my training to PCS firm and then start my own firm as i am confused how will i get clients

When Gen Z displaced Gen X and Gen Y, many things in college culture across law schools changed. Ragging, casual misogyny and homophobia became taboo, conversations about caste privilege became mainstream, mental health issues came out into the open, more attention was given to student rights, and corporate law was no longer seen as the only career option. Also, students became a lot more political, taking positions on the CAA, Palestine and Article 370 (whereas Gen X and Gen Y were mostly apolitical). And, of course, social media became a huge factor in people’s lives (whereas there was no social media when Gen X and early Gen Y were around).

But even Gen Z is now on its way out. Time really flies! Thus, looking ahead, what cultural shifts can we expect when Gen Alpha becomes dominant? What new things will happen?

I’m so sick of grown men / women of being jealous of others who have the gutts to do what they want. You be where you are and be miserable, dear. Also, you might be sick because of your pathetic sleep cycle, gutter worthy eating habits and lack of social or academic intelligence. Relax and sit down

I gave it two years in total - one law firm and one corporate. I loved the work and some of my partners and colleagues but hated everything else. I did an LLM and it was life changing. I went abroad and meet people who are not part of our rat race and doing very different things.

If you go with an open mind and let it change you, you may think of new things you want to do. I chose a path I had never even considered because it was seen as a dumb/ loser choice at my law school. That path was also hard but I kept going for 2 years and now I can say it was the best decision of my life. I love my work and did better at it than I ever expected. My classmates call me to ask how they could sell their ferrari and be happy.

Maybe you will decide that law firm work is for you after all. I know some people who genuinely enjoy it. Maybe you will choose something else. Whatever it is, it will be hard at first so you need to know why you are doing it and you need to do it because you want to, not because everyone else is doing it.

I had the worst experience while interning at a so-called tier 1 firm. I am saying "so-called" because it doesn't pay anywhere near to other tier 1 firms. In my team, there were two other interns apart from me. Those two interns came through referal and were from shitty law school. Still, they were treated nicely and they were having upper hand compared to me. I was the one who pulled day and night to complete the work. Even after all this, associates passed their blames of silly mistaked towards me to discourage continuation of my internship. Later, they turned spiteful and startes disparaging and scolding me for no reason. I was the one facing all the heat for no reason. I belong to a lower middle class family. And my family sends me for internships after living in the hardship. My experience made feel that even after possessing all the qualifications I would not be able to achieve my aspiration because nepokids have an upperhand here. And the kids belonging from lower middle class faces a lot of difficulty in making their space even after undergoing a lot of hardships.

Hi OP, if you’re still reading this - my name is ▮▮▮ and I posted this response. As much as I care about my privacy, a few very kind people took a chance on me (or gave me their time and still do) and I deeply owe it to them (in my limited knowledge and experience) to try and help others. Please feel free to get in touch with me on LinkedIn.

I really care about people enjoying AT LEAST some aspects of this profession, and time permitting I’ll try my best to help.

NDA is offering 20+5 Lpa, is it worth taking up in terms of practical work experience and work life balance compared to other tier 1 firms which now also offer between 17-20L ? Vs. compared to S&R and TTA etc. could someone working on NDA give some insights. Is it worth interning there ?

Who is the moderator looking at this thread? Marked all the wrong comments trollish, this one especially. While I don't agree with some of the things said (especially re arranged marriage!), this expresses a legitimate view (if in slightly sour tones, but that's hardly anything to complain about). Mods, why are you tone-policing those who defend the rights of women?

Because the BSc. CVs, atleast as far as BO'28 is concerned, are academically and competition-wise subpar, with their rank 5 not holding up to rank 20 of BA, and their first-year internships being under T1 corp firms and judges due to their affluent/connected backgrounds.

As for same faculty, the few decent profs this college has are being spread thin commuting between both campuses, with their subpar TAs instead often giving the BA students a heavier hand than what the case would have been with the professor.

Got a decent rank in clat and there are some colleges im fine with getting with my rank however, I'm an OCI and as such I dont know if I'm eligible for counselling. I believed that OCI=NRI for educational purposes according the government but I dont know if that means I'm eligible to enter clat counselling through my general rank. If i'm not eligible through my general rank am I even eligible to enter through the NRI quota because I've done all my schooling in India and as such don't fulfill the criteria of "Done SSC in a university outside India" for foreign nationals.

Also was curious about if it was possible to get jobs in India in corporate as an OCI

Still they will have their way by getting jobs through contacts in the end or rather do nothing and loll on family wealth. It's actually their way of telling u that ur efforts to look them down will never succeed, no matter how hard you try. You think you are smart, but the only one being mae a fool here is you.

Or maybe now she is so well-established in the first world that, as the British would say, she can't be arsed to look for them (i.e., has become lazy). Further evidence of this can be seen in the poor quality of her spelling and grammar and lack of attention to detail: "Baker and McKenzie" = Baker McKenzie, "Latam and Watkins" = Latham & Watkins (damn it, I am completely blind and even I have enough sense to know not to make these mistakes, or to double-check with a google search before hitting send, so what's her problem!?), usage of "is" where she should have used "am". One of these mistakes can be overlooked, but three? And isn't writing on a platform for lawyers and law students by definition supposed to mean that you make sure you are putting your best foot forward? Reminds me of when Trevor Noah was being sarcastic about that scam sign language interprettor the South African government employed; Noah said that scammer "should be a role model to the children" for showing anything is possible. Is this (a sloppy writer, only one level above that situation, in context) the best role model for law students Legally India can produce? If so, pathetic state of affairs!

TCS, Wipro, Infosys, Tech Mahindra, CTS and others.

How do they hire? I have heard they only hire at a few Campuses. Can freshers get assessment internships here?

How's the pay like? Career progression etc.

I have heard initial pay is 7 lpa to 10 lpa. How much will it increase over time.

I have IBC as a subject this sem. I wanted textbook recommendations. Commentaries are also okay, but since those are very chunky I wanted something student friendly which is not very basic, but not as advanced as a commentary. I already went through

Key to Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code Practice and Procedures by Narender Kumar but didn't like it very much. Is there any other good recommendation. Thank you!

Hi guys, can anyone suggest a good course on adr mechanisms, processes, and drafting(arbi award, etc.)? I want to take Lawctopus but am quite skeptical. If anyone can provide me with their own reviews, that would be helpful. Also suggest me where should I intern during my 4th sem if I want to go for arbitration.
