@Rahul: Definitely KCL n UCLA r colleges to go to especially for LLM... they have a long standing of reputation and admiration, NUS on the other hand is a renowned University.. so tht is whr d difference lies as long as money is not the concern for you. Placements wise.. yes England is in a bad shape and doesn luk to b any better any time soon... But m surprised hw ur frnds haven been placed aftr KCL cs all the leading firms in India look upto to KCL n UCLA... Rest it depends on how u perform in your interviews... thr is ntn to confirm you a job even aftr an LLM Degree... be it India or Singapore.
What is important actually is to assess ur course and subjects.. if you are geting d specialization you desire and the subjects that you wish to study.. then the choice of college can be made accordingly.

And yes.. compared to England, job opportunities are better and higher in Singapore.

Has anyone shortlisted their electives??

Has anyone shortlisted their electives??

Thanks Fay. I'm from Maritime Law too, and I cant tell u how much ur reply helped. I was feeling at sea :)

@ Ayeshia: Lost my celll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(

Please any one tell me how to convert marks into grades.
For seeking exemption in compulsory module grades are to be mentioned BUT our university(DU) never provided grades.

Why aren't we exempted already!!

@Ashi: I guess if u r from a common law background u do not need to apply for exemption as even when u register yourself for the modules, it asks you for an option. So jus choose common law and m sure u r exempted straight away... there is no application to be given...
However, if its d other way then kindly let me know... cs i ve already registered for the Modules and have not chosen the compulsory subjects.

@Ashi_r: I agree with Mandavi. The default selection during mod regn was common law degree. Hence I didn't see the need for a formal exemption application. Please clarify if its otherwise.

When you choose the option that you are from common law background, you will find at the end of the next page asking whether you have studied Company Law,(a compulsory module for C&FSL) If yes, YOU have to mention- in which year, what was the name of the module studied and the grade you got in that subject.

May be it is specifically for C&FSL guys.

I even dropped a mail to NUS and got the reply- 'proceed only after converting your marks into grades.' Despite asking, they didn't reply- HOW??

I think every country has a set pattern... how should I proceed?

If anyone of you can help.

@Ashi_r: u must write to the faculty of law (not grad registration) right away and seek clarification. Or call them.

Ashi: I have applied for C&FSL too, but surprisingly i did not have that question with regard to Company law anywhre while I was registering.. Infact as Ayesha said.. by default common law was selected as an option and i did not have to make a choice !! The next page only asked for my options and that was all I was supposed to do.
So if by any chance, i've missed answering the question with regard to Company law as a subject studied during LLB... How do i go about it now ?? any idea !!

@ Mandavi: & as for d credits requested I submitted 20. (Half of d total prog credits) is it k Mandavi???

Oh Mandavi! you have to mention the electives on 3rd page. On 2nd page you are given a few instructions and by default the option chosen is that you have not read Company Law. So you have to click another option and fill in the details regarding Company Law.

Just drop a mail to lawgrad deptt. that you missed the second page and ask them what can be done...

@Ayeshia: Yes ayeshia.. total credits have to be 20 for d 1st Sem n anothr 20 for the second sem... so total 20 is fine !!

@Mandavi: Thanks a bunch for clearing that Mandavi :)
