as far as I know, this is a discussion board, so my guess is that you are a little confused.

This is too funny. I don't why so many people from India want to live and work in the US when the US is sending so many jobs to India. Everytime I call my credit card I get someone in India,

The U.S. is not sending legal jobs to India. People from India and other parts of the world wish to come to the US and study law b/c of the higher esteem in which an American legal education is held by legal employers in their respective countries, and they wish to work in the US in order to gain valuable experience and earn a decent living after law school, something which is not always available to law school graduates in other countries. There's a difference b/w working at a call centre and being a first-year associate at a law firm.

Difference maybe. Good luck explanining that to the GC's of several major US corporations....

Thanks for that. I wasn't aware of it but it is an imaginative idea at the moment, not a reality in the same vein as the offshoring of call centre jobs. My response to richardvf was mainly aimed at pointing out some of the reasons foreign lawyers come to the US to study. And even if legal jobs are offshored, I don't think that'll reduce the number of applicants to LL.M. programmes in the US. It might actually cause the reverse to happen, as employers in their home countries would prefer foreign educated lawyers and the US corporations would prefer US educated lawyers who are possibly qualified or are able to qualify in the US.
