Why do the law undergraduates that graduated from NLS Bangalore, Nalsar earn more than IIT students?

PK
Pradeep Kumar Posted On : September 8th, 2021
BA. LLB from NALSAR University of Law, Hyderabad (2023)

There are various reasons due to which law undergraduates from NLS Bangalore and NALSAR University of Law, Hyderabad earn more than the IIT students. 

  • Since the economic liberalization in the early ’90s, economic activities such as FDI, mergers and acquisitions, loans, IT boom, startup culture have really picked up. This has increased the demand for qualified corporate law practitioners. 
  • Compliance with the laws of the land is a big challenge for companies, especially MNCs. They are ready to pay any amount to remain legal and work under the ambit of the law.
  • The number of law students graduating from top law schools is about 200-250, who are capable of handling the work of the 7 top law firms. 
  • On the other hand, IITs and IIMs churn out thousands of students and in very diverse fields as well.
  • Law being a very niche field also gives leverage to the students to demand higher salaries. An IIT/IIM graduate may get a CTC of INR 25 LPA. 
  • But a law associate will probably be getting a higher in-hand salary with a package of INR 17 lakhs. This is because a law graduate’s salary does not include components such as equity, provident fund, stock options, insurance, and many more.
  • An associate at a law firm has to pay a lot of taxes. This also increases a law graduate’s in-hand salary.

The law firms work in the partnershipmodel. Thus a few years down the line you have a chance to become a partner and earn quite a lot more by sharing profits.

Is studying law at NLSIU a good option? Many of my friends dropped out of there saying it was very hectic and boring with no extracurricular.

SS
Shreya Satpati, Posted On : October 25th, 2021
B.A.LLB (Hons.) from National Law School of India University, Bangalore (2017)

It can be said that NLSIU is the best institute for law. Here are some reasons as to why.

  • The library at NLSIU is one of the biggest in the country. 
  • As far as extracurriculars are concerned, every trimester has something to offer. 
  • In the first semester, there's Spiritus which is the biggest sports fest among all the law schools with participation from more than 20–30 colleges. 
  • In the second trimester, there are Strawberry fields which is one of the biggest music festivals in the country with the participation of more than 60 bands from all over the country. 
  • Lastly, in every trimester there's also some sporting event within the campus like gully cricket league, football league, and basketball league, and so on. 
  • If you include debate moots, etc. it has so much to offer. 
  • In the third semester, a whole week is devoted to extracurriculars from dance to music to dress-up competitions, etc.

Studying at NLSIU is hectic but never boring and the statement about no extracurricular activities is false. There are so many extracurricular activities that you might sometimes get confused about which to take part in.

Is it worth to drop a year in RMLNLU for NLSIU?

CD
Chetna Das Posted On : September 23rd, 2021
Studied BA LLB (Hons) Law & Humanities,Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia National Law University,Lucknow (2017)

You can easily drop a year in RMLNLU for NLSIU or NALSAR. The academic calendar at RMLNLU is completely different and not so tight. There are no mid-semester exams and only end-semester exams take place. 

It is not mandatory to take part in moots, debates, and mediation competitions. You can score well in your semester-end exams by studying 2 weeks before them and can easily devote time and prepare for CLAT.

Thus we can conclude that it is just a myth among people who think that they will not get time after getting admission to RMLNLU. So remove this myth from your mind and start preparing for the exam.

Why is NLSIU the best law school in India?

BS
Bhoomika Shah Posted On : September 23rd, 2021
Studied at National Law School of India University

Basically, the greatness of the law school is defined by the academics, faculty, alumni, and infrastructure. NLSIU Bangalore is the only law school that owns 6 dedicated rooms for moot courts that are one of the most basic requirements for a law student, and a library that contains more than 50,000 volumes. 

The students of the college have won many national and international moot courts along with their placements in decent corporates, law firms, and government institutions. Also, many students cracked civil services examinations and even reached abroad today.

NLSIU Bangalore is the place that takes the best out of every student by providing all the necessary opportunities that a law student requires that help them to reach the apex of success.

Which is better, a BBA MBA from IIM Indore or a BA LLB from NLSIU?

KA
Kirti Adarsh Posted On : September 16th, 2021
BA LLB from NLSIU

This is entirely a matter of your choice or preference. Both these courses have a very different offering from each other in terms of learning. One is a double bachelor (BA LLB) and the other is a Bachelor's + Master’s degree (BBA-MBA). You can choose one or the other on the basis of your interest. If you are someone who wants to pursue a career in law and be a lawyer, you should pick the course from NLSIU, and if the Management and business side of things is where your interests lie, the clear choice is IIM Indore.

If placements are what concern you, IIM Indore is the winner as compared to NLSIU. IIM Indore’s Integrated Programme in Management has an average pay package of about 20 lakhs per annum which is way more than NLSIU’s median at 12 lakhs per annum for a BA LLB graduate. Along with this, IIM Indore also offers opportunities to be placed abroad, and those who get placed abroad can get a package up to 90 LPA, on the other hand, NLSIU doesn’t have much scope for placements abroad and the few that take place don’t garner more than a 20L PA package.

Can I get admission in any NLSIU after cracking CLAT?

RA
Rytash Anand Posted On : September 28th, 2021
BTS from Indira Gandhi National Open University (2020)

Presently, only one college comes under the NLSIU tag and it is number one on the list. In order to get into NLSIU Bangalore, you have to make sure that your rank falls between AIR 1 to AIR 30. 

Surely, there are other colleges as well that you can get into after cracking CLAT, the ones with the NLU and NALSAR tag. Here are some facts you should know about NLU.

  • NLUs are allotted as per your rank and your preference list which you indicate in your application.
  • For example, if you have an AIR 1, and have chosen NLSIU Bangalore as your first preference, you will get into NLSIU Bangalore and other colleges mentioned in the first place of your list.
  • But if you get an AIR between 500-600s and NLSIU is your first preference, there is no chance of getting into NLSIU and you may end up in a lower-ranked NLUs.
  • If your AIR is between 1 to 40 you can get into any National Law University of your preference.

Therefore try working harder for your CLAT exam, as the better your rank will get you admitted in your preferred colleges.

What's the most effective way to crack CLAT so as to join NLSIU, Bangalore?

AB
Adarsh Bhatt Posted On : September 23rd, 2021
Studied BB.A. LL.B from Gujarat National Law University (2025)

CLAT is a national-level exam where the chances of rejection are very high. You should have enough complete clarity in your mind and go for it only if you are fully interested in law. There should not be any second thoughts in your mind. 

Prepare all the sections well, do not leave anything, and if you find something hard, then practice for that. You should plan a clear strategy in your mind regarding solving the paper, time to be devoted, and related points. Revise topics again and again for better preparation.

Lastly, we can say that CLAT is not a complicated exam, it just tests your intelligence, IQ, and aptitude to solve the problems. So completely dive into the preparation and work hard wholeheartedly that can make you the player of the game at the end. 

Securing a good rank in CLAT for NLSIU is an achievement and you should prepare for it strategically. More than 70,000-75,000 students register for the exam every year, out of which the acceptance rate is only 3%.

What are the college timings like at NLSIU and NALSAR? Can you keep your regular job while studying here - at least for the first 2 years?

AM
Adishri Mukherjee Posted On : August 31st, 2021
Studies at NALSAR University of Law, Hyderabad (2018)

The subjects offered at both institutes are full-time courses. NALSAR and NLSIU are both premier educational institutes of the country that offer professional law degrees. 

The courses offered by these institutes start after class 12 for several LLB courses, thus it leads to absolutely no question about you having time to pursue a job. The reason is that it is impossible to pursue a job while pursuing a course as vivid as the one mentioned above. The degree you will acquire is not a part-time degree that is easily feasible at several second-tier universities.

The classes usually extend from 9 A.M. to about 12.30 P.M., while the afternoon classes commonly stretch from 2 P.M. to 4 P.M.

However, in case you are pursuing a distance learning program, which does not include L.L.B, then you can undeniably continue your job.

Is there any age limit for pursuing a BA LLB 5-year course in NLSIU, Bangalore?

MA
Maya Agarwal Posted On : September 28th, 2021
Studied at NLSIU Bangalore (2019)

After doing some research online, I found out that there is no age limit in getting admission to this course.

There are two options to pursue the course:

  • BA LLB (5-year course)
  • LLB (3-year course)

For a three-year course, the minimum eligibility is 45 to 60%. For a five-year course, the minimum eligibility is 45% to 60% for the general category and 40 % for the reserved categories. 

Candidates will be selected based on their merit. This will include the marks obtained in the CLAT exam.

Can I crack CLAT (Common Law Admission Test) and get into NLSIU or NALSAR after taking Science in 12th?

SM
Sarthak Mehrotra Posted On : September 8th, 2021
Studied at National Law School of India University, Bangalore (2020)

If you want to appear for CLAT, it does not matter what stream you were following in your higher secondary years. CLAT does not check your knowledge about a particular stream but it tests your aptitudes.

  • If you work hard then you will definitely be able to get the admission nod from NLSIU or NALSAR. 
  • Since you are in your 10(+2), manage your time carefully between preparing for your board exams and preparing for CLAT.
  • You must have a strong foundation in general knowledge, legal aptitude, English, mathematics or quantitative aptitude, and logical reasoning if you want to appear for the CLAT.

The exams tend to be very competitive and they are not as easy as they look. Try to take mock exams and solve the questions of the previous years to get acquainted with the pattern in which the exams are held.
