One thing I'd advise is to go for your PhD as early as possible. I cleared JRF my but it lapsed. I should have joined somewhere for PhD, even at a tier 3 or tier 4 college I feel.
I am currently based in the UK, and I just wanted to make sure you were going in with eyes open. Keep an eye on the changing landscape, especially re: immigration policy, because that has been, and is likely to continue to be, changing very much over here. As for what you said about wanting to go abroad to make the most of the chances that your combo of brains (to the extent you have that) + privilege (to the extent you have that) will allow you to access, that's also a perfectly valid point (call me biased, but that was very much part of my reasoning as well to move to the UK five years ago, and I practically haven't regretted it at all, except for about an hour of madness once when I dislocated my knee and was having lots of difficulties navigating the British emergency services system, and even that regret vanished later). All the best.
TTA - 15.8 L (fixed) + 3 L (bonus) [18.8 L]
JSA - 14.4 L (fixed) + 4-6 L (bill share) + 3L (bonus) [21.8 - 23.8 L]
CAM - 17.6 L (fixed) + 4 L (bonus) [21.6 L]
KCO - 18 L (fixed) + 3.5 L (bonus) [21.5 L]
AZB - 15.8 L (fixed) + 4.2 L (bonus) [20 L]
- These are last year's figures for KCO, not sure what it is for this year.
- Also SAM A1s are getting anywhere between 21 L - 22.5 L, but I've heard the most common compensation is around 21.5 L (16.5 L + 5 L).
- All the figures above will have minor deviations depending on your reviews/team/billing.
- AZB and TT&A continue to be the least paying Tier 1s at Associate level at least.
I read somewhere that the first readers of Harvard law review are supreme court judges of the US
Huge alumini help
More in pipeline
Aiming for 100% placement for all the students intrested.
Not clear about the figures tho
Most of them are from SAM/CAM/Khaitan's expansion in Hyderabad.
Is there any possibility of such a transition and if anyone has had a journey like that can you share with us?
Idk why people here are hell bent on dissing him. Mandate lose ho gaya kya koi to him?
NUJS > GNLU > NLUJ > NLS > NLUD > NALSAR > NLIU
In terms of placements in foreign law firms:
NLS > NUJS > NLUJ > NALSAR = NLUD > GNLU = NLIU
In terms of all metrics, if I were a student joining law school in 2026:
NLS > NALSAR > NUJS > NLUD > NLUJ > GNLU > NLIU
If placements are my only goal:
NUJS > GNLU = NLUJ > NLS > NALSAR = NLUD > NLIU
NLUs in terms of chillness:
GNLU > NUJS = NALSAR > NLIU > NLUD > NLUJ > NLS

This is a wrong assumption.
P.S. You don't have to mention you are a clat aspirant. Anyone and everyone is allowed to have a intellectual discourse.
Only a small number of committed ideological people, in academia or NGOs, will.
It’s only because his sister on the team that he feels comfortable speaking like this to anyone. Seriously guys?

TLDR: "Across the legal industry, AI technology could overturn the billable hours model by automating many of the routine tasks for which firms have previously charged clients. Instead, fees could be charged based on the outcome of a firm’s work under a model called value-based pricing." Kirkland would hire out this model after internal testing.
