Hi- I wanted to know if anyone can help me with some information.

I am a law student in Canada- I want to study for one semester in either Beijing or Shanghai at one of the 3 available schools- Beida, Qinghua or EAst University of Politics.

For all the universities LLM English program in Chinese law, is it very competitive to get in? If I have very good marks, alot of experience and can speak Chinese and af ew other languages, do you think it will be easy? Or is it still very hard?

Second, at Shanghai, I have not been able to find out details about the courses- does someone know what type of courses are taught?

Third, what type of work is required to satisfy the requirements? Exams and essays? I am just worried it will be TOO easy- I am hoping that the academic standards are the same as other international law programs.

Any info or help would be really appreciated!!!!
