Hi all..

I am software engineer from india with 2 years experience in IT firm. I am currently studying in final year of 3 yr LLB course. I have few doubts..

1) does my IT experience is helpful? As for LLM work ex is always considered good
2) My engineering score is good but LAW scores are average..does that hamper my chances for good law school?

Please guide me..

1. IT experience is helpful but not much, definitely not if you're switching careers.

2. Pre-law scores count for nothing unless you've graduated with distinction, top of class. Average law scores *will* hamper your chances substantially, at least in the T14.
