I am a fourth year student and want to do an LLM in the UK. I have not even dared to look at Oxbridge, but wanted to know if I have any chance with LSE, KCL, and UCL as I understand they have a pretty competitive admissions process too. It seems their minimum requirements are basically an 8.0/10 CGPA, while mine is 7.55.

I have a decent CV otherwise, regular mooting, debating + published articles and I'm confident I can publish with good places by the end of this year.

Anyone with any knowledge about this, and especially those who have already pursued LLMs in the UK, please help me out -

1. do i have any chance of being considered regardless of my current c.g.p.a?
2. if not, could 2 years work experience in a reputable firm in the same area help/negate the disadvantage bc of my academic record?

thank you!

Third-year at JGLS- usually our Sundays are dedicated to hogging the Channa Bhatura, pancakes and cold coffee at the mess which is the typical breakfast on Sundays- it's almost a tradition at this point.

Also was working on an elective assignment (a moot) which was fun- but also stressful. So yeah, as much as I would like to rot on Sundays, believe it or not- JGLS kids mostly spend most of their hours on our assignments lmao. Ask us what our Thursdays are like instead ;)

Hi LI Hivemind. I am an Indian student at law school in a foreign jurisdiction. I was recently debating with a friend of mine in my law school about the value of studying legal theory. Wanted to ask two questions out of curiosity.

First, is this subject compulsory in Indian law schools (be they NLU, TLC or whatever)?

Second, if and where it is compulsory, is it compulsory because the law schools think that that is a good idea or because the BCI requires that law students in India study legal philosophy?

NB: Promise there's no trolling here. I (1) study in a jurisdiction where the regulator doesn't think that it is a good idea to make it compulsory to study Jurisprudence (but I think they should change their mind), so no superiority complexes/desire to show off; (2) love Jurisprudence, for I am fortunate enough to study in a law school with good Jurisprudence faculty; and (3) study in a law school where, despite the regulator's indifference, Jurisprudence is compulsory. Considering this, my plea to mods is to publish this and not assume that I am engaged in some kind of hit-job.

These paralegals are in their 4/5th year tho, and that justifies them not getting a salary. They get the same package as NLU kids get when joining as AO. Although it is known that Luthra and Saraf do discriminate between NLU and Non-NLU kids, this is the reason they are not allowed to participate in the Day Zero in our uni.

I went to a T2 NLU and we ate each T1 NLU in every competition we were in. Tankha, Vis, Day of Crisis, debates. We ate them everywhere.(They have done much better then my uni in general) but I have never lost any round of any comp face-to-face to any T1NLU. Do what drives you lad, we had a saying whenever we broke into knockouts "I hope we get NLS." Taunt them

You mean Probal Bhaduri? He wear ties in all his profile photos! 😄 They seem to be designer brands as well. The third pic looks like a Satya Paul tie (the purple one). Kudos to him for dressing sharply!

Look at it from the UK's side too. If India agrees to upgrade IPR laws and reduce tariffs on UK products like whisky and dairy, those will be MASSIVE gains. The UK side won't mind giving up on its claim for foreign law firm entry if these gains can be made. They will be ok with deferring it to later.

Advantages:
1. Location (internships, faculty, guest sessions, study visits, courts).
2. Fees (₹65 K per semester, total ₹6.5 lacs in 5 years, so possible without a loan)
3. Institution of National Importance (funding, resources, and priority)
4. Inter-disciplinary (interact with non-law students as well)
5. National diversity (no domicile reservation), in Delhi no one gets treated like an 'outsider'
6. Visibility and links (deep collaborations institutions like ED, CBI, SEBI, RBI, DGGI, more exposure)
7. Research and PG focussed (only a few integrated UG programs are available)
8. Higher studies (universities like Oxford and Cambridge prefer students from INIs in India)
9. Unique specialization (corporate/financial forensics for BBA-LLB (H))

10. Batch size (intake just 40, you are not with 200 - 300 treated like cattle, so more opportunities)
11. Clean and transparent (no financial irregularities, administrative apathy, corruption)

12. Credibility (only academic institution whose reports are accepted in courts as evidence)

Every point above is factual that can be confirmed. They are not my opinion.

Finally..........asking about IIT KGP School of Law or NFSU School of Law on this platform is like asking Pakistan about India.

Every single criticism that's been written against LS and their practices has been marked trollish on this thread, whereas every single praise has been published. One wonders why the people against whom criticism, vitriol and diatribes are regularly published here are being discriminated against in that case. Is it because LS has threatened legal action against LI whereas the others haven't yet? Either publish both the sides or don't allow threads like this at all, because what's the point?

All Big4s pay the same. Even McKinsey starts at the same scale for the NALSAR peeps they have taken. We're getting shortchanged in India considering Big4s take at 90-115k dollars abroad for fresher roles in consulting and Mckinsey goes till 200k. There's no comparison at all and it infuriates me. At least pay like 25lpa if you're paying that much abroad

firsties from other NLUs keep shitting on each other, meanwhile the recent graduates dgaf. I've recently graduated from MNLU M, we've had at least 30 PPOs, total of 40-45 job offers. This is with the admin fucking up our placements (and the placement officer getting poached twice) - the batch itself has amazing work ethic, hence the offers. Many people are going into lit, some into judiciary and some into UPSC, so they didn't even apply. At least 5-6 are trying for good LLMs.

Admin is shit, students are good - I'm saying this as someone who doesn't even like half the batch.

Have NLU-O and HNLU outperformed us? Could be, idk. The fact is students are building up the brand name regardless and any person in any of the three will do well provided he/she has decent work ethic.

NEVER DO THIS. I've never done this even in internships, so as an A2 where you've handled even more sensitive data it is simply out of the question. Just say something like "fortune 500 company" "part of the NIFT/SENSEX" or something like that. At most WITCH or FAANG.

The amount of downvotes here alone is enough to tell you about the maturity of the average law school crowd. They think just because power dynamics are skewed and not in their favor it is okay for a female co star to talk like that about SRK. Just read that again.

Feminism means egalitarianism. Not equality of convenience. She was wrong to have said that.

Hi, can anyone help me with Partners in Delhi for PE/VC/corporate practice who are supportive, knowledgeable as well believes in work-life balance in tier-1/2 law firms? Would be really grateful as I am looking for professional growth and pay but not vastly at the expense of mental health. Thank you!

Hey, I am working in In-house for almost a year now, it is quite important to see which sub-team you are joining in the Company's legal team. As per your query it is understandable that you want to move to law firm later, hence i would suggest you to join the team that works on M&A, secretarial and mainly the corporate team (Head Quarters) than any regional team.

Further if law firm is your goal, it is better to start in law firm than in-house because generally the lateral hiring from inhouse to firm is not preferred that much. Plus the inhouse role tends to get managerial at some point. Learning is not that high in in-house.

Hey, everyone. I was scrolling through one of the S&R Associates threads where I got to know that, along with a usual presentation, interns are also provided with a term sheet to work on. Can any one of you please shed some light on what the purpose behind this exercise is and how an intern should approach it? Thank you.

There are some NLU alumni tweeting a lot of interesting stuff on the elections. I'd say it's much better to follow them than full-time political handles, which are often anon handles which give fake news . Also, these law grads give interesting insights on the legal aspects of election news, such as criminal cases, SC petitions etc. Below is a list of people I suggest one can follow. Feel free to add more.

I am working as an in-house counsel in a big automobile parts manufacturing company. Can i switch from here to the big 4 like PWC or EY? I have always wondered about which post to apply for hence seeking some guidance and help on this platform. Also what is the pay scale in the Big4 for lawyers with 2+ years of experience?

In case you have noticed, I haven't provided any 'suggestions'. All I was saying (and no doubt I expressed myself a bit too warmly) is that there are toxicity problems in NUJS, as there are in all competitive institutions, and any attempt to say otherwise would be nothing more nor less than the merest eyewash; in addition to this, I gave a factual account of one incident. Am I saying OP shouldn't go to NUJS because of that? Of course I am not! Nobody is that stupid!

The OP needs to be prepared to handle that stuff, which the previous comment wasn't giving helpful advice for OP to do. You have, in fact, provided that helpful advice, so props to you for doing that. In fact, if I were OP, I'd say you have been even more helpful, for you have stated the obvious to make sure the understanding on how not to be toxic yourself is clear.

You understand the difference between journalism and philosophy right? Maybe start there.

The question is what stories you are cherry picking and what you understand from them. Forgive me if I find it difficult to treat your anecdotes as some sort of iron clad evidence of how you know more than one of the most cited and celebrated philosophers in the world.

but no history or really anything useful. Truth isn't objective ▮▮▮. People reach a consensus on what they all agree to believe in and that consensus moves.

Also 'people in India' is a very large group of people encompassing patriarchal to matrilineal societies and many values and languages. So one group of people can be burning women and marrying off children while another group criticises it. Wild right? Imagine that.

While I was interning at Lumiere Law Partners, Noida, I was told by my mentor that their managing partner wanted even interns to wear ties. Since I didn't have one, an associate offered me their tie as they had quite a few ties in their drawer. The managing partner is now the managing partner of EVA Law.

Hello,
I am a BO 2025 student and am inclined to pursue a career in Litigation (Not very particular as to what sub-specialization). I am open to all forms of Civil/Commercial Litigation.

I find Counsel practice very attractive and would love to get decent exposure to Court practice/procedure and appear regularly. I have 2-3 assessments lined up for me in Tax, Commercial, Civil Litigation. I have noticed that generally at law firms the Associates/SA's do not have much opportunities to appear and that is a little scary.

(1) Do I move to counsel practice/under an independent lawyer right now itself for exposure to Appearing, court procedure etc and then maybe move to firms because you would have anyway made decent contacts with firms if you are in a Sr. counsel's office.

(2) Do I join a law firm and make some money for 3-4 years and then gradually move into Counsel Offices/ Independent practioners. You meet a lot of Sr. Counsel's for briefing and can then ask for chances.

I am a first generation lawyer, Mumbai based upper middle class family (parents have offered to support me financially to reasonable extents and not to compromise on career options) with previous Internships at 2-3 Counsel offices. Please share your insights on this?

Yes, my parents were obsessed with getting me in NLS and the top-3-4 colleges at max. My batch gave the exam during COVID and I messed it up on a multiple levels. Our exams got pushed off from May to October end, NLS had a separate exam which was cancelled later on, there was a last minute change in pattern from Offline to Online, we had to give exams in poorly equipped centers during peak COVID wearing gloves, PPO and shit. My parents knew it very well, I could have made it into T1 law schools, they just hated me and doubted my mocks (like i cheated). They lost faith in me and cope with the fact that I would not be a T1 law student. They did not allow me to take a drop. Every year some random day they choose to bring this topic up. I might be one of the best students in my batch, with assessments and PPO options. It does not matter to them. They keep punishing me till day when I ask for something (To go out, spend time with friends, maybe a decent phone) and say yeah you could have got all those if you had got into the T1 NLU that you deserved but chose to squander the opportunity. I understand they resent it. But I have moved past and worked so hard to make it up..I simply do not pay much heed to it now..

Hurts? yes, but nothing much I can do about it that get a job and move on.
The featured answer is actually very true..

Hey,

I often stick to normal open rubber chappals or Sparx equivalent but in plastic/foam. I keep formal shoes in the office cubicle and change into them in the washroom after drying. The issue with most formal looking rubber shoes for me is they give me shoe bites. You don't want shoe bites that too in the rainy season.

Yeah so I'm a woman. I don't think that anyone who talks about other genders the way you do get to claim feminism. You want to kick away the ladder, I don't.

My point is that this horrific discriminatory story telling, in which you make all kinds of assumptions and insist that all non binary people are as you imagine the non binary people in your life to be is exactly how sexist men talk about women.

Every non binary person I know is mentally healthier than less introspective idiots who have never been to therapy because of their privilege. In learning to accept themselves in a world full of bigots like you, they have developed a deep sense of compassion and empathy that I don't see anywhere in this thread. Every single one of them is also a superstar because they had to be, to be treated with common decency. Why are your anecdotes which frankly reek of your prejudice superior to mine?

Shame on you for showing zero interest in all the work that it took for women to be able to study and practice law. I don't want to be in any group that is your transphobic 'side'. You are here seeking validation for your bigotry when you should be asking yourself difficult questions about why you make the assumptions you make about people who are different from you.

OP- im sorry about the mod here. and Im sorry you have to deal with being accused of a bigot to ask very obvious questions and having a very human experience. Youve done nothing bigoted. Youre clearly just concerned about what you see around you. There are more people just like you. I dont recommend putting yourself in a bubble informationally- but if you want to reach out for support- fourthwavewomen subreddit, Ovarit, saidit, and mumsnet uk are all good places to start. You might find reading Lionel Shrivers new dystopian fiction- Mania- cathartic to read.

keep applying everywhere, linkedin, email, literally everywhere.

Make your CV looks decent, crisp, to the point and is not vague about your work experience.
Write an article or something related to corporate. Dont hesitate to work for smaller firms for minimal pay, it will increase after an year, take whatever ypou get if you think the opportunity is good.

I got to know about the opening through a friemd who was working at the firm, but I was also applying at a lot of other places.

Dont be disheartened if you dont hear back, I had literally applied at 100 places to get only a few call backs, it might seem a lil difficult but i promise you its not impossible.

Try and convince the interviewer that you are really interested in the field and you will learn things, tell them to ficus on your potential and not on your experience.

I will tell you one thing very honestly about DSK BLR. In BLR office, as PQE 4 I was paid the same as an A0. Another colleague, PQE 2 was paid lesser than an A0 hired from NLU. So pay disparity is real. And the bonus figures are almost virtual. They pay 10%-20% bonus. Highest is 25%.

My post has been triggered by JKR's tweet today. She has really crossed all limits of shamelessness.

Why do we need to teach courses referencing books authored by such a toxic person, whose views can lead to more hate and violence that trans persons face? Also, Harry Potter is now really old and doesn't have the same relevance for today's youth as it did for earlier generations. As an alternative, law schools can instead teach with reference to the Game of Thrones/House of the Dragon books and TV shows. There are tons of jurisprudential and legal concepts one can find within it, e.g. Church versus State, legitimacy of government, Walk of Shame as a gendered retributive form of punishment, humane treatment of prisoners, slavery etc etc. Check out these articles:

I can't engage with someone who has the hubris to say they disagree with Butler without any reasoned explanation for why. Yup, everyone is entitled to stick to their guns regardless of what better minds try to teach them. And everyone else is entitled to leave them to it without wasting more time. Also freedom. You're not looking for a conversation, you're looking for a fight.

'Word games' is a very old ad hominem attack tactic of the ignorant. I would recommend updation but I suspect repeating tired old tropes is your thing.

https://leetcode.com/discuss/compensation/2748640/300-company-compensation-for- This link has a list of 300 companies' compensation for freshers. I think what the above comment says about CTC makes sense.

For example, as per details in the above shared link, Amazon may say that the CTC for a software development engineer (fresher) is INR 45 LPA, but it seems that the said fresher will get INR 25,64,000 in their first year [Base salary: ₹ 19,17,000 Signing Bonus: ₹ 11,65,000 (₹ 6,47,000 1st year + ₹ 5,18,000 2nd year) Stock or RSU: ₹ 15,56,000 (vested over 4 years) Total CTC: ₹ 46,38,000]. The said fresher will have to pay a tax of INR 6,04,968 (income tax is INR 5,81,700 + HEC is INR 23,268). The in-hand salary of the fresher will be INR 19,59,032, which is still more that what any fresher in any law firm in India gets. But not as humongous a difference in pay as it would have been if the actual pay is INR 45 LPA.

But, as per the same link above, Sprinklr pays a CTC of INR 30 LPA (all base pay) to its fresh product engineers.

It also makes me feel jealous to see that engineering interns get paid in lakhs. It reminds me of a conversation with a date of mine (a software engineer) who was working in the same building as KCO, Bangalore's office, when I was interning there. They asked me how much stipend I was paid. I said that I would be paid INR 5K per month (although I was paid only INR 9.4K for two months). They told me that their interns were paid INR 70K per month.

P.S. - I am not sure if my understanding and my tax calculations are right.

I am just pasting the table containing the details of salary breakups. I don't know if it will appear the same way as I am pasting.

For someone who has never been to the place, you seem to be too eager to criticise it. As for the suggestions, I have followed those myself and recently graduated from there with decent grades, a top job offer under the belt and available opportunities for higher studies and the goodwill of several established alumni. I never mooted myself, but did end up with a decent CV otherwise. I came from a middle class family, had taken a student loan, got the merit cum means scholarship, and was a first generation law student. Instead of parroting words like toxicity or judging other people with half baked information, I preferred to help those who asked for it and got helped by others in return. I also spoke about my political opinions and social views clearly when asked, but chose not to throw them into others' faces unwanted. Did face challenges of my own in my five years, but thankfully got an amazing set of parents, friends, seniors and a few faculty who helped me overcome those. I will leave it to the OP whose version and suggestions they would choose to follow, yours or mine.

Please name a single faculty there who is recognised as a well-known IP scholar among their faculty. INI or IoE tag matters zilch about the quality of education and opportunities provided. Which is not to say that it is a bad plan. When it comes to an LLM, there is not any discernible difference between it and the NLUs. Still, talk to some of its current students or alumni and then decide. They are the only ones who can give you a realistic idea about the place.

Anyone who forms an impression based on one campus visit is really naive. You think somebody will be able to make out such under-currents through one campus visit? Especially unpleasant admin? Only obvious red flags would be apparent in such a case. You really need to give NUJS more credit than this. They would be shown the welcoming, open, pleasant face of the admin, only to get in and then experience a shock.

its not about which side suffers more harm. its not pain olympics. Its clear to me that kids who are identifying their way out of sex is suffering harm. Its evident to me that whats been happening with youth gender medicine is an unbelievable medical tragedy and a scandal. I completely believe that trans people suffer harm.

Even OP- shes not saying her friends are well and theyre doing it for kicks. She wrote this because shes concerned that their mental health is so far gone they are hanging on to this idea and antagonising all their friends and family. Shes unhappy she isnt able to support her friends the way they want and that she actually cannot in her own head figure out what the best way to help her friends is.

Its about thinking through whether evidence blind ideological positions based on esoteric academic philosophy - and cancelling dissidents- can actually be the basis for discussion in the material real world. If you make things unsayable because you think it appears bigoted- youre not actually interested in solving the problem- youre interested in being seen as wonderful and "on the right side of history".

Law student in England here. Had a long day revising for 15th May exam. Been enjoying the sun for few minutes. It's 25 Degrees C, "partly sunny" in London (where I live right now), and it's so nice! We haven't seen the sun in so many months - and naturally we want to see it more! Also, novelty! This has been only the sixth day since October that I have been able to go outside without putting on a coat! Our uni administrations, in all their wisdom, however, feel like we should be able to bully our brains into concentrating on studies for two more weeks, in order to be better contributors to society by being hard-working, enjoying the good things in moderation and so on. Which is all fine and wonderful I am sure, and a mentality I can agree with, but truth be told, that's easier said than done!
