Guys, I want to ask a question, perhaps a stupid one from someone's point of view.
I am now reviewing NY Bar eligibility requirements. Everything is pretty much clear with the required coursework, (2 credits in American law, 2 in professional ethics, bla-bla-bla). But what about section 7 requirement (permissible coursework)?
7. Permissible Coursework. For applicants who commence a program in the 2012-2013 academic year, the LL.M. degree program may include: (i) a maximum of four credits in clinical courses (so long as the clinic course has a classroom component, the clinical work is performed under the direct supervision of a member of the law school faculty and the educational benefit is commensurate with credit awarded) and (ii) a maximum of six credits in other courses related to legal training (so long as the course is taught by a faculty member at law school awarding the LL.M. or an affiliate school and the course is completed at a campus in the United States).
What does item (ii) refers to? I mean what courses are viewed as related to legal training?
