I opted for 2 P/F grades in 55 odd subjects, however, some people opted for 8-10, that means that 15-20% of their subjects are not being used to calculate GPA and the true GPA is being masked. These people essentially decided to opt for P/F in all subjects in which they get grades which bring their GPA down (even is it is minute or negligible).
Honestly, given the general deterioration of JGLS and gross mismanagement along with big ego of admin staff, I am not surprised.
JGLS is not what it used to be before.
Big marketing scam. VC busy US trips.
Wait... JGLS. Okay, this information just became so much more credible.
Someone (perhaps the CAM HR Rep reading this thread) should ask him what academic excellence did his partners like Rishabh Shroff sir, Paridhi Shroff ma’am and Abhinav Kumar sir, exhibit during their respective pursuits of law degrees.
And the only reason this came to mind was due to a possible rumour being propagated by his own employees (albeit drunk) from the projects and banking practice regarding Rishabh Shroff sirs (failed) stint in NY.
Best if Cyril bhai can actually clarify the actual facts to his own employees from the projects and banking practice so that they propagate the truth in place of defamatory lies.
PS: apart from the personalities named above, various other partners lack the kind of academic excellence that he expects first-gen law grads with limited resources to exhibit.

For instance, On Wednesday, April 24, 2008, at 6:02 p.m., the Mumbai lawyers of Amarchand, the country’s supreme corporate legal minds who routinely dispense advice to clients worth billions of dollars, received an unusual email in their inbox. Paridhi Shroff, at the time the 18-year-old daughter of managing partners Cyril Shroff and his wife Vandana, had put out a firm-wide alert, a desperate plea for help from the lawyers who worked for her father. Paridhi was looking for someone to do her homework.
