NLS (I hope, don’t know for sure) remains in the race,
The sooner you guys realise this, the less time you will spend on this inane thread.
I guess it’s a typo.

There are plenty of other students who have published at peer review journals like NLU Delhi Journal of Legal Studies, NUJS Law Review and more...
Batch of 2026 is exceptional for sure
NLU Delhi maybe YES
Questions will then be asked if the 100/100 NIRF perception score, which keeps NLSIU at #1 each year, is justified. Of course, the worst case scenario will be 0 in 10 years (2017-26) but that is perhaps unlikely.
And as for your counter , there isn’t any. So I ain’t even gonna justify your bs trolling until you give me a good argument. No wonder you lack the attention to read even basic stuff
Well done!
Kinda confused as you think it’s not a high bar to beat and yet there is only one….
I am not denying that Nujs in the last ten years got 4 Rhodes scholars but even after taking that into account - who are you to claim that ten years are a good metric? R u the chairperson of the Mensa society? Thought so.
And stop subtly commenting against an institute (which is way outside your IQ) and then pretending as if that was supporting the very institute. Your kind of degrading trolling has been here since ages. Don’t pretend to be over smart when you lack basic smartness. Read your comment again. Fix your logic and then come talk here
My money is in NLSIU tho
The Rhodes fever is not ending soon
The kind of insecurity your comment projects only makes me lose faith on your basic logic sense.
Follow this for more updates. The application date already closed around 1st August 2023. So the results will be declared around late September or November maybe.
This has been the tradition for 2020 , 2021 and 2022.
In my view, the Rhodes panel should have one representative from each of the four corners of India, each being an alum from a different university, plus 3 foreigners. Also, the corporate trustees should be more balanced. Once CEO from each part of the country. Also, the preference for wokeness and human rights law should stop.
For nlsiu - say it honestly , any alumni would’ve worked to get their students on board for the win. Let’s not single out just NLS
NUJS - 4 (2021, 2018, 2016, 2013)
NLSIU - 3 (2016, 2014, 2013)
NLUD - 2 (2020, 2015)
CLC Delhi - 2 (2020, 2015)
GNLU - 2 (2019, 2017)
Nagpur University - 1 (2017)
NUALS - 1 (2016)
NALSAR - 1 (2014)
As for domestic placements, NLIU Bhopal does well, though not as well as NUJS, which has got the best domestic placements for whatever reasons despite its controversies and falling academic standards. NLUJ and NLIU Bhopal have comparable domestic placements. GNLU is slightly behind and NALSAR is slightly ahead of NLUJ and NLIU Bhopal on that count, if we don't count this year. NLS has fallen behind recently, but still does okay enough.
Fingers crossed for NLU Delhi tho. They deserve it. Same goes for NLSIU
Nehi toh nalsar

Overall GNLU has two Rhodes scholars till date.
Here’s my prediction :- but before that let’s look at some placements and how T-1 Fared domestically and internationally
I will be using words like ‘Best’ and ‘worst’ but I don’t intend to troll.
As per my independent research (which includes just tweets , informal reports and in person info)
NUJS had the best placements domestically and it shares this joint position with NLIU Bhopal
NLU Jodhpur had the best TCs
Nalsar was consistent in TCs but domestically dipped a bit
NLS had the worst year in terms of placements
So maybe NLS alumni will infact lobby hard
But my money is on NLU Delhi and NLU Jodhpur
Maybe the upcoming batch will pull some momentum.
For now I am divided between NLU Delhi and GNLU
I have some expectations from Nujs but not much. They had one Rhodes scholar in the last few years tho so they have improved.
Nalsar can be a dark horse.
I have no idea about NLU Delhi
Maybe NLUJ or DU?
Will this be the year of the dominant T-1 or will we see a gradual rise of underrated colleges from the Indian subcontinent?
