Another non-trollish answer: NLS kids are placed (regardless of whether one finds it legitimate or not) on a pedestal - nay, on a throne. Kings have the luxury of immense choice. Paupers must take what comes their way to survive.
An NLS student/grad's opportunities are so limitless in corp firms that he need not work to get an offer. So he finds himself free to explore other pastures, and devote a lot more thinking and time, and those in the pasture are more willing to entertain his exploration too. This is not novel - students from top IITs, or for that matter, Ivy leauge or Oxbridge unis have similar privilege, and do similar things.
NLS grads don't get any extra opportunities for law firm jobs than those from NALSAR and NUJS. That's a myth. In fact, given that they have stopped publishing their recruitment stats for years now, they probably don't even get that many.
It’s not ‘only’ the few years advantage. You forgot to mention that nlsiu takes the most meritorious students from clat and so does the other top 2. If years of establishes are indeed the priority , then top 3 wouldn’t be the top 3 you know now
Exactly. Trolls like this one occasionally surfaces, has got no touch with reality beyond social media coverage and then wonders why they don't know of others' achievements.
The answer is obvious: it's much older than all other NLUs. Have you looked at the alumni of GLC and DU? NLS stands nowhere compared to what the alumni of both these conventionally non sexy law schools have achieved. Why would one expect law schools like NLUs that were opened barely a decade ago to have a great alumni base?
I don't know what you are talking about. Nalsar has all of the above, except MLA which NLS also only just got. I am sure NUJS also has alums who have achieved most of the above.
- Queen's Counsel
- Senior Advocates
- Judges
And now an MLA.
Why have other NLUs failed to achieve this? Why have they not achieved success beyond law firm partnerships?
It's sort of like asking why NLS is behind Delhi University or GLC in judgeships, senior advocates, MLAs and professors...
Also, many other NLUs have got a few in most of these categories...

Such questions are downright stupid, a little usage of your brain and one can get the answer but no....intrad you wanna enter a ego battle on LI.
- How many Jessup wins?
- How many TIME 100 Power List mentions and Jefferson Medal winners?
- How many Infosys Prize winners?
- How many HC judges?
- How many Senior Advocates?
- How many Advocate General appointments?
And don't just cite age as the reason, as some of the people above graduated when other NLUs were very much in existence.
