I will be completing my HSC this year and I am interested in studying low but I am not sure if it is good as a career or not. I have heard of CLAT which is an entrance exam, there are schools offering 5 year course including ba+llb so I wanted to know if it will be a good choice for me?? Is there a good scope under Law in India as per current scenario? I am really confused and I need some guidance.

Yes,you can definitely peruse your career in law if you are interested, there are several government and private institutes offering under-graduate and post-graduate law courses. You have vast choice of specialization as far as the law is concerned, the specialization includes civil law, criminal law, corporate law, property law, income tax law, marine law, public international law, family law, labour law, press law, excise law, constitutional law, administration law, sale of goods law, trade mark, copyright and patent law etc.

I think that pursuing LLB after 10+2 is a very good option. Once you complete your course in law you can seek job in Government Services, Magistrate and Sub-Magistrate, Public Defenders, Public Prosecutor, Solicitor, Attorney General, Advocate General, District Attorney, Notary, Oath Commissioner, Legal Advisers, Advocate, Teacher and Company Secretary.

Pursuing LLB after 10+2 is really the best option if you really want to go for it, I have come across people who find it interesting in the starting but leave the same before completing their studies. The course in law (LLB) is of 5 years, P.G. Programmes in law (LLM) is for 2 years and the eligibility for the same is LLB degree. Other than this there are universities and institutes offering diploma courses including Administrative Law, International Law, Labour Laws, Tax Laws and Corporate Laws as well.

Hey guys thanks for the same, I really wasn’t aware that there are some many career under law.

I will check about the same in detail, 5 year course including ma+llb seem to be long but I am quite ready for it and will definitely go for it as after completing my studies.

Anyways I live in Mumbai and I wanted to know that which are the best colleges and institutes offering law courses here?? Any ideas??
