Hi everyone,
I'm new to this forum and seeking advice on applying for LLM programs. I plan to apply within the next few years and am interested in studying law and potentially working in places like Japan, Hong Kong, or the United States. I’m open to exploring other locations as well, including staying in major cities like New York or Los Angeles. I’m curious about the application process, requirements, timelines, and any insight into securing employment afterward as a foreign-trained lawyer.
Thanks in advance for any help!
