How’s this as an option?

It’s very good but most folks here won’t crack Harvard law via lsat - so :)

Good if your parents have a lot of money and you are not concerned about ROI.

ROI for a JD degree is actually quite good.

The ROI is 5x man. No cap

Life wasted.

A girl from NUJS called Iram Huq did so (JD Harvard) and now works in the US. JGLS also offers a dual BALLB-JD degree option, which quite a few people have taken up and are now in the US. Another example is Prof Shyam Balganesh: BALLB from NLSIU), then BCL and MPhil from Oxford on a Rhodes scholarship, then JD from Yale. But he is in academics of course, not practice.

Yes, several other NUJS and NALSAR students have done the same. I think others from NLSIU too over the years, other than Shyam.

What do you mean by nlsiu too? Nlsiu is the trendsetter

Yes please. Also can you please move away and comment. Because noojies are not allowed in NLS’s elite space

Iran Haq and Balganesh are very good examples

Not, why would you want to take the harder route when you can get an LLM if you want to practice.?

LLM and JD lmao

Are effing kidding me? JD has a much more concrete value than LLM. You won’t get direct jobs after llm

Stop giving wrong advice. A JD is much more precious than a LLM even for a native!

Definitely good. You'll learn real law there.

A good option provided you have the money to see through it. JD will improve your chances of getting a job at a White Shoe firm.

It's very expensive. The NUJS girl being referred to had to pay full fees despite being a good student.

Iram had actually got a decent scholarship because of her good CV and application.

And she had good grades at college as well

Iram is <3

That is very unlikely however good she is. Harvard does need based scholarships and a large component is loans.
