I don't understand this sub at all
Why does everyone in this sub discourage students from middle class to pursue law at a tier 1 nlu or tier 2 nlu? (if they crack clat) I don't understand the logic behind it, everyone cites the reason that it's expensive, no financial security upfront because placements are not stable, family connections are needed and all?? Why are you guys gatekeeping for what reason? The same people are encouraging people to go for neet and jee saying IIT, AIIMS, GMC and NITs are better without knowing anything about IIT and others lol, the average 4 year fees of IIT students including hostel and mess is 9-12 lakhs for general students (my one friend is in IIT Ghy) and the same can be said about their placements only the students of top 3-4 branches get placements and the placements % is above 80 while the placements for other branches cling around 40-50% and many students from IIT get placements of 3-4 lpa at the backend, NITs are similar like IITs the only difference is the fees are 7-8lakhs on average including hostel and mess.
Now, for the medical part, one of my friends is in AIIMS Deoghar and another friend is at another GMCH and their life is the most messed up, they too don't have any financial security upfront, after completing their degree they get to do internship for 6 - 12 months having an average stipend of 25k per month which accounts to almost 3lpa while doing 36 hrs duty day and night and it doesn't end here, if they wanna be a govt doctor after doing MBBS they would need to crack the state PCS to become Medical Officer, mostly don't, the private hospitals even don't give a damn about MBBS graduates and even patients look for doctors who atleast have cleared PG and even if they start self practitioning it will take them years to build up the reputation of a good dr and earn good money, most graduates go for NEET PG, SS and go on for studying for 10 years, beyond the age of 30-32 so they can start self practitioning and earn good money, even if you say that practice while studying pg and ss it's true but hardly it's 3-4 lpa.
If you say that the fees of aiims are low as 6-7k it's totally true but that comes at a cost of studying tireless for the next 5-8 years (minimum) and how many seats are there for aiims in India? 2,257 seats for 22 lakh aspirants and majority 90% don't get into aiims, they settle for a gmch and the fees of gmch varies state by state some have 10-20k per annum and some have 80-1lakh per annum, the average comes down to 30-50k, my friend who got the highest marks in my region got the top college of our state (there's no aiims here) so he got a gmch and his fees are 17k per year but he didn't get any hostel so his monthly expenses living in a city are 15-20k which accounts to 7 lakh to 10 lakh for the 5 year program and the same family and connections thing can be applied to every field that exists and in can 100% be applied to doctors as it takes years to build reputation of a good doctor just like a good lawyer unless you have some connections.
Now, regarding law, law is the same its expensive for some tier 1 nlus, no financial security upfront due to uncertain placements if you wanna go into corporate and the wlb of corporate is also the worst but same can be said for medical and earnings from litigation in the first years are peanuts unless you have good family connections which all are true but the main issue is stop gate keeping law to middle class students while encouraging other career options like neet and jee cause these career paths let it be neet, jee or even clat aren't a bed roses, every career requires struggle, patience, hardwork and time to bear it's fruits, if you do hardwork and build up the right skills for your career trajectory then you'll definitely shine in your field no matter the obstacles!! The problem is people think that if they crack jee, neet or clat their life is set and they don't need to do anything else but that's the biggest myth lol the real struggle starts after cracking the exam, if you don't do hardwork you'll fail even if you are in a IIT many students get 3-4lpa in IIT ..... that's all I have to say.
