Hello everyone,
I am a foreigner and I was admitted by the Sciences Po for its program of Master Economic law major the global economic law, which is the "double diplome" with the Paris1.
I applied for the Paris 2 for its Master2, and I am waiting for the result. While waiting the result, I am curious which law school is the best, the Sciences-Po, Paris 1, or Paris 2.
Although the law school programe of Sciences Po is still very young (its law school has established since 2009), the school is a prestigious "grande ecole", while Paris 1 and Paris 2 are also very good school, famous among the international law firms.
I just would like to ask if, you are accepted by all of the Sciences-Po, Paris 1, and Pairs 2, which school you will choose to go. And if the program of Sciences-Po is the double diplome with Paris 2, but it takes for 2 years.
I am looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you very much!
Sciences-Po or Paris 1 or Paris 2

Sciences po is not good at all in Law (but very good in politics). Best universities are Paris 1 and 2. Thats it.
If you have the choice between Paris 1 and 2 i would choose the sorbonne without any doubt.
Paris 1 :
- quality
- prestige
- the new sorbonne law school ( http://ecolededroitdelasorbonne.univ-paris1.fr/)
- partnership with other universities
Paris 2 :
- quality and partnership.
But : Paris 2 is not Famous... and they have have an inferiority complex (always saying that they are the best...) It's even written in the website of paris 2... But if you look closer Paris 1 is better. The "agence pour l'évaluation et de la recherche" evalues every year french universities.
This is for paris 1

This is for Paris 2 :
http://www.aeres-evaluation.fr/index.php/Etablissements/UNIVERSITE-PARIS-2
And every year it is Paris 1 which wins the the "prix de la chancellerie" (best PhD)/ This year 10 for Paris 1 and 2 for Paris... 2.
Paris 2 is very good in communication not paris 1 it is the reason why a lot a people are saying that paris 2 is better. It's a very good university but not the best.
If you want to have a job which is very international : choose Paris 1... If you want to work in France choose Paris 1 or paris 2. The choice is a question of mentality too. Paris 2 is much more conservative than Paris 1 and you can feel it as a student... in the library for example.
For sciences-po : i think you have the answer in the title of this institution. Sciences-po is made for politics... not law. But is just the beginning... maybe in 20 years the will be very good but not for the moment.
I think you choosed the Master : droit de la globalisation économique which is a very good master (even with sciences po).
I studied 4 years in Paris 1 and 1 year in Paris 2. My heart is in paris 1.
