Dear Rafael,

My name is Silvia and I am currently attending the LL.M. in International Trade and Business Law at Católica.

This is the first year of the program and we have just finished the first of its three terms, but maybe I could help you with my experience so far.

What would you like to know?

Rafael,
Lisbon's LLM is a practice oriented and innovative program, with a clear Anglo-American character. It accepts only a small number of applicants and preference is given to candidates with a strong academic and professional CV.

Paulo,

Thanks for those information.

I am still concerning about to apply for it.

In reality, I think Lisbon wonderful. Católica has a great name in Law, specially for a brazilian.

Furthermore, I am looking for a LL.M with the above mentioned characters. So this course really corresponds to my expectations.

A final question: What is a strong academic and professional CV for the Católica Board?

Thanks one more time

Se preferir,

Sinceramente, tenho muito interesse em continuar meus estudos em Portugal, tão mais na área de Comércio Internacional.

Não tenho muito tempo de formado, mas tive notas muito boas na graduação (média final 8,20 pontos em 10 possíveis). Tive o prazer de estagiar em 3 escritórios de grande renome em São Paulo, e fui contratado pelo Jurídico Corporativo do Unibanco, terceiro maior conglomerado financeiro do Brasil.

Na sua opinião eu atenderia às exigências para a admissão?

Muito obrigado,

Rafael Lima

Dear Silvia,

I will appreciate if you tell me just a little about the program, subjects in study, or any other information that may encourage me to apply for the LL.M. in International Trade and Business Law at Católica.

Besides that, I will appreciate if you make a personal judgment about your experiences until now.

A final question: How hard is to get an opportunity to attend this LL.M.?

Many thanks

Rafael Lima

P.S: I am brazilian and if you would like to speak in Portuguese it will be nice.

"What is a strong academic and professional CV for the Católica Board?"

I would say:
Academic CV: degrees: grades; schools of origin; fields of study and research.
Professional CV: type of professional experience; in which organizations; duration; recommendation by employers.

Prezado Rafael, tudo bem? Tb sou brasileiro e pretendo aplicar para algumas universidades que possuem o LLM. Minha prioridade é alguma faculdade nos EUA, porém, tb tenho interesse na Europa. Vc acha que o curso de Lisboa realmente é bom? Ainda é o primeiro ano e sei que os grandes escritórios chamam para entrevistas na ordem de importância das faculdades. Vc pretende trabalhar na Europa ou voltar? Agradeço à atenção. Obrigado. Fabio Rosa
