http://www.llm-guide.com/board/46142 en Russian students for LLM or JD? - LLM GUIDE Discussion Board Tue, 22 Apr 2008 11:17:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/46142/last#46142 Hi guys, I'm really confused so I hope you'll clarify some things for me about that. I'm finishing law school in Russia this summer and thinking about contunuing my education in USA. First I was recommended to do LLM which only takes 1 year but I was told that I have pretty much about 5-10% of getting a job after because generally USA law firms will more likely hire an american than a russian girl with russian law school dimploma and an LLM diploma which seems fair enough because I can hardly learn much during just 1 year of school, besides the difference between russian and american law systems is HUGE. So the question is: should I REALLY take LLM if I want to stay to work in USA after or it's better to spend more money for JD but have more guarantees of being employed after? And if yes then: is it worth applying for JD since I have a russian dimploma in law OR will I eventually have to give up both LLM and JD and just start it all over again getting a barchelors degree for 4 years? Also I'm considering Albany Law School - can you say something about it? Is it worh applying to? Thanks alot:) Marina Tue, 22 Apr 2008 12:06:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/46142/last#46143 Marina, I sent you a PM... check it out Tue, 22 Apr 2008 13:01:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/46142/last#46148 ты в личку пиши, обсудим...и поможем ) Tue, 22 Apr 2008 13:04:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/46142/last#46149 Полностью присоединяюсь к предыдущему сообщению.

Специализация одинаковая - International Business Law На сколько американский LLM стоит того, чтобы отказаться от гранта Японского правительства и потом отрабатывать?
