- Someone who left nujs last year, appeared for clat again and got into a much better NLU
Enjoy for the first couple of years and then start working from the third year onwards.
I personally enjoyed my college time a lot, and so I wouldn't have done this in the hindsight, but if you are only focused on counsel practice then this is probably the most effective path.
2. If you wish to join litigation including your father's practice, then it makes sense for you to stay near him and choose Symbi.
3. NUJS will also offer you multiple other kinds of career option and higher studies and alum and faculty support if you haven't yet made up your mind about what to do after graduation. Symbi will require you to mostly figure those out all by yourself.
4. The faculty and research culture are still much better at NUJS at present.
5. Kolkata as a city is obviously better than Pune to spend 5 years in, though the proximity to your home may negate that.
I have got nothing against Symbi and in fact recommend it as the best private university option if students fail to crack the top 6 NLUs.
