Hello,

When it comes to pursuing a career, it's always important to consider few things such as skills, aptitude, your area of interest etc, now law as a career is great option, but if you don't have interest in the discipline then there is no point in wasting five years of your precious life into it, law as a subject isn't only about memorizing theoretical concepts but there are practical applications as well, so you need to have a great interest in doing so, every career choice has its own challenges, now depending on which university you apply for, if there are no placements in such scenario the struggles for employment becomes tough, and this is where the candidate has to put in his or her own efforts, you can go for internships in order to gain experiences in your relative field,  integrated law comes in various forms such as BBA-LLB, BCom-LLB, BCA-LLB, BSc-LLB etc, where it's an amalgamation of law with the concerned field, for example if you wish to work in corporate domain then BBA-LLB/BCom-LLB is more suited because of its curriculum, and other than this being a law graduate you can apply for any government jobs based on the eligibility criteria of graduation, and there are also specialist posts in banking sector as in legal department, so there are various opportunities which you can explore however it's essential to note that you do have interest in law as a career, else you should opt for other options.

hey there

hope you are doing well

No, Bar Council of India (Which regulates lawyers profession)does not recognize any distance education degree for LLB. Therefore, even if you managed to obtain one, you will not be able to practice in court with that degree.

there is no need to practice law for lawyers in India to become a Judge.it is not necessary to have a experience certificate for a judge. Only the judges need to pass the judiciary exam.

Hi Akshay,

See, it depends on your interest on which field you want to enter. Litigation requires a lot of practice and consistency whereas even in corporate you need to work very hard and yes, you should have basic knowledge of accountancy, atleast the ones you have been taught at college, but as I see you are not going for integrated course, you are opting 3years LL.B, so you might have few subjects related to corporate law, that would help you but have a basic knowledge of accountacy is what I would suggest, otherwise you can go for any specialization course after completing your LL.B in corporate law, that will benefit you surely.

Thanks.

Hello,

A student from the commerce stream can also pursue law. The CLAT exam is for National Law Universities. So, it is not necessary to give CLAT exam for law if you don't intend to join any NLUs. You can give other entrance exams for a law such as AILET, JAM, SNAP, etc. If you wish to join NLUs, you have to thoroughly prepare for CLAT. First set a routine for you, study for around 5-6 hours per day, practice sample papers and mock tests. This will help you in clearing the exam.

Hope your doubts are cleared. Thank you.

Your answer is present in your question itself. You are giving preference to Business first and then to Engineering and then for Lawyer.
