To USA read law Master LLM, rather than the law undergraduate JD.Compared with LLM Law MSc and JD law, there are twoPotential: first, as long as a year, andNot JD three years; second, LLM scholarship opportunities to more than JD, even without LLM tuition scholarship, need only a year, but this year's LLM JD than one year tuition is low, you can easily afford.
To American read law Master LLM, significance is that it can test America lawyer qualification, although not all States, but California and New York many states can be admitted.In this way, can choose to work in a famous USA law firm China offices, the annual salary of up to three hundred thousand yuan.
As a matter of principle, I encourage students to get a master's degree in China, the work of a few years.Because maybe that time based on the work of the busy and success, you don't want to go.Many young Beijing lawyer, has far exceeded those obtained USA lawyer qualification, students in the America practitioners Chinese.In the legal profession that Chinese government allowed to open field, a generation of young lawyer China own culture is radiation huge success of light, the graduation of the students attracted numerous European and American law school have joined in the.
Graduate to American read JD, can be said to be the most ideal way of lawyers.But the most ideal, may not be the most realistic.I objected to study the collective unconscious, contains against this can hardly be found unconscious -- to forget about one's own, the pursuit of a "best degree", but the best degree, often divorced from reality, too expensive, too difficult, resulting in great distress trap.The struggle also need to do, this is the truth.
Want to read legal professional now how should do?My suggestion is to work immediately.Start to work, if the law is really true to the core of his love and not just to American to cause an affair, I encourage the law Master's home.Later admitted to master of laws in China, according to the situation of considering what to USA read LLM.To study abroad to become an easy choice, rather than struggle to fight to win or die.
Two phase comparison: if in 2009 began to read the master of law in China, you will graduate in 2011, passed the bar exam in 2012, get Chinese lawyer qualification.All of your spending, not more than 200000 yuan; if this year you a visa to go to USA reading JD, you also graduated in 2011, spent a year on the qualification as a lawyer, but also get America lawyer qualification in 2012, and basically the same as the above timetable.But you might at least need to pay 1000000 yuan.
The two degree of the future, earning
potential, is about the same.Get the second lawyer qualification in time, is almost the same.But in effect guarantee success, victory, twice the result with half the effort, apparently the first plan more reasonable.
