For the US schools, they say Stanford, Harvard, Columbia.. therafter no one knows, NYU could be next, all these would be probably very close in ranking anyway
As for Cambridge, should have the same levels as the top three US, I think, except it is not a great spot if you are looking for a job in US..
I have Columbia offer without aid, and waiting Harvard and Cambridge, so the question.. If I get Cambridge with a scholarship, what do I do?

Dear Ms Kiran Podar

Some of the factors considered by good law schools in USA for LL.M admission are :

(a) Statement of Purpose;
(b) Writing Sample/Essay
(c) Resume
(d) Letters of Reference
(e) Transcriptions from degree granting school in India;
(f) Toefl

Most of the schools accept on-line applications directly or through LSAC. It is highly recommended that the candidate should subscribe for LSAC membership and send LSAC the transcriptions and Toefl scores.

prior experience is not a condition precedent for admission in most of the schools; however one or two years of post bar enrolment experience is an added advantage.
