Hi all,

If any of you guys reading are online PM me so we can exchange ideas please.

I am Laura from Honduras, Central America and was wondering what you guys think of my stats in re to chances of getting into a solid LLM program. My dream school is Georgetown but I'd love ideas on where else you'd think I'd be accepted.

TOEFL Score, ibt: 113, lowest on reading 26, 30 on 2 sections
Law School Grades: 75% avg, ranked as good standing by my law school
Master's Degree in Corporate Law: 88% graduating this month
Master's Degree in International Relations and Foreign Commerce: 92%, 3 classes pending, ranked 4th of my class, finish it all by december, graduating next june however
Work Experience:
Over 4 years in my country's Constitutional Room (highest ranking room) of the Supreme Court of Justice,
6 months as = Legal Director of a Non Governmental Organization, Head of the Legal Department at a Private Business Conglomerate, VP and Legal Advisor to the Honduran Association of Japanese Scholarship Recepients
I am bilingual (english and spanish) and hold introductory certificates to french and japanese

Any ideas?

Do you want a corporate law program?

Augusto,

I'd like an LLM in general studies, health law or international studies. I know the rankings in those areas but I'd love opinions on my chances to get in to programs.

thanx

Well, your chances will very much depend on a) your rankings b) your personal statement and c) your recommendation letters.

TOEFL does not really matter that much as long as you have reached the limit of 100.

In general, it seems to me that your background is strong enough to get into one of the top 10 schools. I believe all these (except Stanford) have strong general LLM programmes, so that won't be a problem.
