i'm a penultimate year law student, currently doing my research in order to submit my applications for LLM programs at different universities around the world (i am also preparing for CLAT-PG as a back up).
recently, someone mentioned how law firms end up funding your LLMs and i should focus on getting a job first, and get my own LLM entirely funded. i have my fair share of internships, however i don't have a PPO and now i'm considering interning long term or applying to law firms straight out of law school. i was wondering if i could hear out everyone's experiences and get some insight into this possibility. please do tell me what your experience was like. thank you !!!
