Law or LLB course is a lucrative career for many in India as it is a Professional degree course and provides a status and reputation in society. Lawyers in India are considered as intellectuals and are held in high self-esteem.
One needs to get a LL.B degree to practice law in courts in India. One can directly take admission in BA.LL.B five year integrated course after metric and if one has a graduation degree then one can take admission in LL.B three year
course.
Law is a hot career option pursued by many after metric. And in order to make the course more convenient and professional an integrated five year course curriculum is designed in form of BA LLB course.
BA.LL.B course is equally good as LL.B three year course depending on students choice/ preference and future prospect. Though both the courses are quiet similar but they are bit different when it comes to curriculum . The
confusion regarding choice of BALLB and LLB is very common among students.
Since the course is in demand and there is great craze among younger generation because of number of career prospects that it opens. It offers lucrative jobs and high sense of pride . Though getting admission in law colleges is not that it easy as there is cut throat competition to get admission in reputed national colleges. Both state and central government conduct entrance exams for admission in law colleges like CLAT – Common Law Admission Test , AILET- All India Law Entrance Test , LSAT- Law School Entrance Test, Maharashtra common entrance test and All India Bar Exam. Delhi university and Banaras Hindu university both conduct separate entrance test for admission law course.
Though both the courses offer lucrative career opportunity but its advisable for an individual to choose a stream at an early age and develop professional attitude which will be helpful in the long run. And at the same time opting for B.A.LL.B 5 year course saves one year of the candidate and is more a professionally developed course curriculum. Five year degree course also provides the right career opportunity and correct mental setup and attitude for young budding lawyer.
