Now really - is it worth it ?


Dear All,
I'm thinking of a US LLM and I really need to know how my chances look from the view of other people who really monitor the LLM connected world.
I'm 25. A specialist's diploma (equivalent to a LLB) with honours in international law from the leading university of one of the Eastern European countries (mooting experience with good results, voluntary lecturing for the university after graduation). I did a UK LLM from Queen Mary, University of London. 2 year internship in the Department of Foreign Trade of the Ministry of Foreign affairs plus one year of working for a local office of an international law firm. Final destination - a good LLM in International Trade or Economic Law so I could apply for a job for a IGO/law firm in this sphere. I know that I already have a LLM - but I it was more focused on procedural aspects of International Trade and getting a LLM in USA does give (though a very slight ) chance to get a good experience of working for a US Law firm, so I could then go back home and start a law firm of my own.I'm still not sure whether I want to stay in the private sector or switch to becoming a employee for a IGO.
Now after I wrote everything - is it worth it ?. Won't obtaining a second LLM become a waist of time and money? And do I have the chances of getting into good law schools.
