will I get admissions?
Mon Jul 21, 2008 05:50 AM
I have graduated in Economics and then subsequently in Law. I do not have any publications to my credit though my scores in my university have been within the first ten.

Please advice if I'll ever get through a good univ with the choice of my subjects (business/corporate laws). Which are the Univs/colleges I should be applying to?

Please advice.

I saw this ranking list by specific area before I apply to LLM, too.
It got every law subject detailed ranking, some of which are you can hardly think about. I like the info the ranking provide very much.
People should think of what specific area or point you really want to delve into and check more of the school website for courses to make a wise choice before spending such a gigantic amount of tuition.
Good luck

Vanderbilt and Cardozo are considered very good in the area you intend applying.
