Those who have left NUJS for MNLU would eventually consider it to have been one of the biggest mistakes of their lives, if they are not already doing so.
MNLU Mumbai will not give you any locational advantage at this stage other than saving your ticket fare to Mumbai during internships. NLIU Bhopal has got better faculty, much better alumni, and certainly better administration currently.
Mumbai as a city is itself a big factor. I know of a few students who have left NUJS for Mnlu. there are many who chose Mnlu over NLUJ/GNLU. So decide accordingly
So I'm getting a gut feeling based on the general trend with the scores that I've seen online that it's possible that I could get NLIU Bhopal. In terms of placements and faculty, should I choose Bhopal or Mumbai, having this doubt as the latter enjoys a locational advantage in terms of jobs and opportunities, but is it big enough for me to place it above Bhopal in my preference?
Translation - Don't fuck up your career by joing MNLU
