should i take drop and appear for clat or join upes this year ?

Hi there,

In my opinion, UPES, Dehradun is a good choice if you are not getting any NLUs

Please see that UPES offers a variety of undergraduate programs with multiple specializations and for PG it offers only one programme.

Regarding the placements, it gives a quite good exposure about the industry and the curriculum and faculty is quite well too.

However the things you should look for before taking admission anywhere are:

Industry Reputation

Reputation amongst Foreign Law Schools

Academic Standards / Quality of Faculty

Recruitment Statistics

Location

Student Community / Campus Life

Hostel Quality

IT Infrastructure / Library

Quality of Entrance Process

If you have the option to take a drop for one year, i would recommend you to go for it and prepare for NLUs with same enthusiasm and faith as this year.

I hope this will help you decide...

Best Wishes !!
