Academics

I am currently a first year student in BALLB (H). The faculty is highly educated and skilled at their craft. The academics and course work can be very gruesome and tough due to the load of it plus the pressure of exams all year around. Moreover, this law school offers a very competitive atmosphere which can feel suffocating for a while but the coursework in general is updated and in line with the industry's demands with special emphasis on critical reasoning.

My college life is good
