Does passing cs exams help in securing law firm internships?

Hi,

I will be starting my first semester at a law school this year at a lower Tier 2 NLU (it just sits on the border of Tier 2 and 3). So to be honest, expecting on-campus placements there is too risky. And since I come from a middle-class family and being a first-gen in this field with no connections, securing a PPO is also difficult. So I was thinking — should I also prepare for CS exams? I don't intend to have a career in CS, but just having the exams cleared (not articleship) on my cv — can that help me in securing, or even standing out among my peers for internships?

I know good academics, like being in the top 10 of the batch, is very important for securing internships.

So just a question: if I manage to be in the top 10 of my batch along with clearing these CS exams at a slow pace, would that help in securing internships? Or is clearing CS exams just futile?

Which foreign language is most useful for law students

French, German, Spanish, or Mandarin which one actually helps in a law career? I’ve heard that the International Court of Justice uses French as one of its official working languages. A lot of European Union institutions also heavily use French. German is useful for EU corporate law. Spanish has a massive global utility and Mandarin is valuable for international trade/business law.

Should I exit ?

I don’t know what to do at this point. I have been allotted a seat at Maharashtra National Law University, Nagpur, and a week ago I gave MHCET as a Maharashtra domicile candidate.

There is no sign of the result or even the provisional answer key yet, and the last date to confirm the seat is 25 May.

I’m stuck about what to do. I really don’t want to go to NLU Nagpur.

What should I do as a general category candidate?

doubts regarding drops

why is it that droppers werent able to crack clat this time (i mean most of the people who do crack clat are droppers but)? i dont get it, didnt they have more time to study? even if it was a huge shock that the pattern had changed, people had plenty of time to study logical and analytical reasoning (you barely need a week's worth of studying for that) and they shouldve, and most probably did, because as a dropper, they would be attempting even more law entrances like ailet, slat etc as a safety net

and the questions themselves, especially for english and legal reasoning(except for the gk ones) were actually easy, so much so that it didnt require any reading comprehension whatsoever. that maths portion was a bit lengthy though, so i can understand why people would struggle with it, especially with how little time we do have.

im not saying all of this to mock anyone, i genuinely want to know, where do you think people go wrong in their prep and attempt?

NLSIU bgl MPP scores

hello guys, this is not law related but ill ask anyway. i had given the NLSIU MPP exam. when the final answer key came out, my marks were 69/75 for part A. now that the results are out, my scorecard says ive gotten 40? how on earth is this possible? i had triple checked while calculating my answers and there’s no way it could’ve dropped that much. there’s also a lot of confusion with the master code and different sets so is it because of a mix-up? please let me know if anyone else is facing the same issue.

Law Students/Lawyers - Pls say the Raw Truth About This Career to 16[M] before I choose this field

Hello folks,

16[M],lower middle class family with family income around 4L per annum with 5 family members,no lawyer in any distant relation and no connections

Was always interested in law. On research,I came to know that there are mainly 2 fields in law-litigation and corporate(non-litigation).

  • Litigation is representing cases in court.Lil money at start but has lots of potential when going senior.
  • Corporate is working in finance law for big companies. Good salary at the beginning but no wlb and toxic environment.Good potential as well.

I m interested in litigatin but will go with corporate for initial yeaers to pay off the loan and then switch to either litigation or in-house.

,I'll definitely be taking a loan for law college.But my question is,even if I get into top NLU,will I SURELY get a job?

Bcs 25L is a huge amount for me.If I don't get a job,I would be drowning in debt.It is a huge risk.

Another option,I am thinking of is to do BA from local clg and then 3yr LLB from a good NLU.That way I have to pay lesser fees,less debt and can also work part-time if needed.But I have heard that 3 yr LLB is not considered in par with 5 yr LLB.Is that true?

Also,since I have no guidance in this field,pls tell me if law is worth it or not,especially since I'll be taking a huge risk to pursue this field.

Am I being paranoid?

So I am taking admission in one of the nlus, not sure if it's the same for everyone but I was asked my mother tongue and religion. Does it matter? I don't know if I am looking too much into it but this can be used to isolate people of a particular religion or mother tongue and specifically the place has a different culture than that of mine. Can I just avoid these questions entirely? To be honest I am a bit disappointed on why they would ask this?

Should I give up on pursuing law ? I keep hearing that you can’t do much in corporate law if you’re not from an NLU or a top private college and I’m not getting into any of those colleges

I’m already a dropper
