We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.

Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.

If that doesn't work, take 2-3 years to work in a place with good academic mentors where you can write and publish a bit. That way you'll have the publications and glowing recommendations to help you. You are better off going to a high ranked Singapore uni with scholarship than to a mediocre British one paying for yourself.
top of mid russell - ucl, kcl - min 60% (preferably in top 20%) + good sop
mid mid russell - Druham, Warwick, QMUL, Bristol, Sheffield, Manchester, Edinburgh, nottingham etc. - min 60% (preferably in top 30%)
low russell - southampton, QUB, soas, exeter, leeds, newcastle - min 60% may go upto 55% depending on Indian uni (have some relaxation for NLUs)
PhD is a new norm.
Which universities are generally classified as "mid russell"?
uk unis look for around 60% however, it is possible to get into a mid russell group with a good sop, as long as you can spin a story as to why you could not achieve your full academic potential
your indian llm scores do not matter when you apply for llm in the uk as the admissions team will check your llb marks, however, the llm will allow you to spin a story saying that there were some hardships during llb (covid) which led to low scores and you have compensated for it in llm. this story and the added experience will help you to get into mid Russell like Leeds, Sheffield, QMUL etc.
Top Russell like Oxbridge, LSE etc. will not take you in unless you do tremendously well in LLM
Tell me how much you have scored in your LLB and the type of college you have done your UG, I will let you know which unis to apply to in the UK (irrespective of your LLM scores)
So my question is after doing LLM in India, and then I apply for another LLM in abroad. Will they consider my LLM in India score for abroad LLM?
