Hey guys,
I am currently studying LLB in a top 3 Australian Law School, and was looking at doing my LLM later in my career. Right now, I am on track to receive honours when graduating. My question is, I know for undergraduate law at Harvard etc, they really emphasize the importance of extra-curricular activities; is this also the case for the LLM?
I ask because I am interested in studying at places like Harvard for LLM, and I have done things like build orphanages in Kenya, and was also a national athletics champion in high-school. Will this help me at all, or should I emphasize my time on getting even better grades if that's pretty much all they take into account?
Thanks, in advance
Do LLM's care about extra-curricular?
