Hi guys, I'm from Argentina, and I would like to study an LLM in USA or Australia. These are my resources:
- High School GPA 3.4
- Law School GPA 3
- Volunteer experience on Gender Rights (an internship for the City Hall and in the law school)
- Work Experience on Judiciary, on Criminal Law
-TOEFL pending (I will take it in July)
The thing is, my GPA seems low but for my university (Universidad Nacional de Rosario) is above the average, and I asked for a ranking certificate, but I remember being at least between the 15% top the class.
I have finishsed my degree 9 years ago.
I also will need financial aid to pay the LLM
I was thinking on an LLM on Humans Rights, or International Law.
These is my top universities: USA: Columbia, Cornell, Fordham, San Diego and Pepperdine.
AUSTRALIA: Monash, The Sydney University, Deakin, Victoria.
What do you think my prospects are?
