We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.
Our full terms and conditions apply too.
Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
12. Yes sure do Vis in your third year. But again, think bigger. Start preparing for Jessup. Possibly with the same contingent. Start with Brownlie's PIL Book (Chapter 3) because Malcolm Shaw is an ass.
13. Take up a sport and master it. Like
14. IndiaCorpLaw is great, but aim for Oxford Statute Law Review.
15.
Now, if you are done with all the BS, stop overthinking about this. Do me a favour. Read 100 pages of anything that challenges your brain, every day, for the next two months and make it a habit. You will rule law school.
If there is someone who has genuinely helped you out or who has been a positive influence on your career, and you feel the uncontrolable need to respond to this (because after all, one must respond to something!), leave their names right out and treat this as one of those "wrong answers only" type of gimmics, by naming the one who tried to destroy your career (but not saying that they tried that), but give the impression that they tried to help. This is not the platform to try and recognise/reward nice people. Reserve that for your "moving-from-one-job-to-another" or your "reflections-after-retirement-in-a-quest-for-continuing-relevancy" LinkedIn posts. For those new to LI, here's why: if one person says person x is nice, 40 people will jump on that by mass-downvoting, 20 people will take it to the next level by posting comments that attempt to rip the person's reputation and character to shreds and a further 10 will attempt actual character assassination, by accusing the one praised as being nice of everything from bullying, to BDSM, to espionage, to incendiarism. Of course, if it's a nice night for it, they will try to get away with Nazism as well. It isn't LI's fault, that's just how gossip blogs are.
Therefore, if you name the ones who were horrible to you as though they were the transformational guiding light in your professional lives, then we can turn this to our advantage and have those persons given the reputational thrashing that they deserve!
Plan A: (my parents favourite) Take admission in symbiosis Pune or NMIMS or wait for mhcet results and take any cet college.
Plan B: Take a will have to take a sabbatical this year and next year ill submit applications
It’s just really hard to make friends once you cross a certain age. Everyone is either too toxic, or too fake, or too conservative, or too woke. And no one has time with 15-hour work days.
Psychiatrists are today, seeing hordes of law firm associates — depression, lack of sleep, no friends etc.

No, the streams are not merit based. You can choose whatever you like.
Which stream is highest scoring? Well I can tell you by experience that the lowest scoring is BA, even I had humanities and thought it would be a better option but it was a mistake.
BBA/Bcom would be a good option and if you don’t want to go near business or accounting subjects then go with the safest, tried and tested BSW.
And no, streams are not a deciding factor for your placements. Nobody cares about your stream. But they do care about your rank which is based on your marks which is based on…you get my point.
Mods pls approve and publish this as its a little bit urgent. Thank you
