I did an llm in France, apparently, the llm in french schools is equivalent to a master 1. In France, there is a master 1 and master 2.
So my question is, what are the reasons for doing a master 2 after the llm?
And, does doing an llm without a master 2 mean that my llm degree is incomplete somehow?
I am not interested in working in France. I will be returning to my home country.
Thanks.
Why a Master 2 after an LLM?

Hey,
The problem in France is that the master 1 is theoretical instead of the master 2 which is professional with a mandatory training. So a master 1 is not enough !

Except that an LLM is not the same as master 1. And, what would be the point of doing a Master 2 if one doesn't want to work in France? I think the issue relates to equivalencies and the way each country perceives the academic degrees. A french person may perceive the LLM as a master 1 and as not enough, but, in anglosaxon countries, the LLM is a degree on its own, where you both write a memoire and do the soutenance. In addition to that, in the USA, for example, you have masters of laws that are not LLM.
I have a USA JD already, by the way.

Well, some classmates talked to the director of the LLM program and it was implied that in France, the LLM is the equivalent of a Master 1.
