Hi guys, I was just curious about the chances of my admission. I am from India and applying for Harvard and Stanford (and Oxbridge). I wanted to share my profile in brief. I would welcome any opinions about my chances, considering that a lot of people apply from India.
1. I hold BBA, LLB, LLM and MA (Political Science) degrees. I studied in one of the best Universities for LLB and LLM from Leiden University. I have strong 2.1 in LLB and LLM, 1st Division in BBA and MA.
2. I have 2 certifications and 2 Diplomas. I attended the Hague Academy of International Law and the Paris Arbitration Academy. I have written a book, forewarded by a senior judge. I have 11 publications including papers and articles in national newspapers.
3. I have two years of work experience. I have worked under the Chief Justice of India, other appellate court judges and Senior Advocates. I have my own law practice now and have appeared in over 100 cases and arbitrations in two years. I also represent an international government in India.
4. I have other extra curriculars including being the convener of the Moot Court Society, Head of Legal Services Soceity, served as Editor of two journals etc. I also hold many awards for sports accomplishments.
My only worry is the lack of first division/grades. What do you guys think?
