Note I didn't say TTTs (we all know what that is) but rather TWTs - Third world toilets. Who am I talking about?
- The 21 year old guy from Belarus legal academy, who is only 21 because in his country you don't need to go to college to go to "law school."
- The girl from Guangzou upstairs medical law school, whose only accomplishment was a high TOEFL score, which she attained by having someone take the test for her (which is apparently easy to do, in other countries.)
You get the picture. Anyone else concerned about this? How valuable could an LLM from Columbia or NYU be if any foreign schmuck can get one?
Do top LLM programs admit a lot of TWTs?

Surely those persons are more educated than you. Your IP address should be suspended in this website for that kind of comments.

That's the best retort I've ever seen on a message board.
Pure pwnage.

Surely you're wrong. I actually went to undergrad, and to a real law school. I also didn't cheat on a standardized test. Unlike a lot of the foreign LLM students.

So you don't mind that your LLM program takes any warm body with a foreign "law degree" (I put that in quotes because a lot of these foreign schools wouldn't even qualify as 4th tier here) and a high TOEFL score (which again, was probably attained by having someone take it for them)?

I did not say that you have not done all that. On the contrary, what I said is that dispite you went to undergrad and to a "real law school" those persons are more educated than you.

Why are you sooooo worried about that? It seems that your background is not good enought in order to compete for a place in an LLM program with that persons.

How hillarious is that? Well, ETS might be stupid, but it is definitely not as stupid as you are

So you get to decide that someone who went to law school/goat milking farm got a better education than me?
A lot of these foreign law schools are just really bad. They're called law schools, but they're about as rigorous as an elementary school. They can't even match up to a fourth tier school like CUNY Queens.

Of course, I am sure they never would say such stupid and discriminatory things like you.
