Right now, it's clear to me that I want to focus on the judiciary. However, I’m constantly plagued by a fear of "what if..."—and this "what if" leads to endless possibilities. I’ve been checking the list of selected candidates whose results were just announced, comparing them with past years. I noticed many repeated names—some selected, some not—and this is making me feel very demotivated. I genuinely want to pursue a judicial career, but this endless "what if" feeling is weighing on me. I feel so confused.
I chose the judiciary because I want to do something meaningful for society, for myself, and for my family. Sometimes, I listen to interviews of toppers and learn about their failures, and I start to overthink. On the other hand, seeing someone crack the exam just three months after graduating gives me instant motivation.
I can't help but wonder if I'm slipping back into the same mental state I was in during CLAT preparation—a phase that left me deeply depressed.
My current strategy is to prepare diligently over the next two years, and after that, focus on revision to crack the exam. But is it really that doable? Is it that easy? I’m just feeling unsure...
Please help me out.
You have to understand bankers pay very less for the work, and Manan and most others undercut others as well, leaving very less on the table.
However, 15 cr is a LOT for a equity partner in India, let alone in ECM, only him and maybe one other partner across firms cross 10 cr mark in ECM.
ECM, DCM and Banking (maybe except JSA, but not sure on this) are very low billing areas.
Is it the gross revenue earned by the entire team under that partner, or what exactly?
With bonus, close to 22 lacs.
1) Is it worth for GenCorp? How is their work environment?
2) What is their renumeration for NLU freshers?
3) Can someone shed some light on the "online aptitude test" and their interview/selection process?
No troll answers please.
Only been 1 year as partner; but have seen her hold her fort against senior partners on deals. Takes interest in mentoring her juniors as well
They pay their associates well. Do not listen to stuff on the internet. They don’t know sh*t.
How’s your experience been?
