google it clown

Ppl are just too lazy to search on linked. You have all your answers there.

Let's get this straight. NUS/SMU kids shouldn't feel entitled to all the coveted spots in the market. The field is fair game to all, and this is backed up by real evidence and structural changes in thinking by the recruitment committees' decisions.

This is reality.

not op, but I'm from NUS and this thinking really is outdated. some of my best colleagues have been overseas grads, and some local grads just lack business sense or social skills.

you are the dumb one giving us a bad name lol, not everyone from local uni is so entitled, spoilt and narrow minded

Not bashing a certain segment but I am wondering if there's any recent JLCs (like post 2020 recent) with a polytechnic background? Saw a few from TP Law > NUS/Cambridge on LinkedIn but that's about it and they served their JLC stints nearly 10 years ago? This is highly commendable and respectable considering the smaller intake of JLCs in yesteryears.

A quick check on google indicates that there are a few from NP,RP,SP and TP currently pursuing law at the local universities (excluding SUSS, that school comprises mainly polytechnic graduates who cmi to the other two/not willing to pursue a law degree in the UK..) Where do these students train at after law school? International, Big 4 or Mid-Tier firms? I thought that there would be more representation with the liberalisation of the admission regime for NUS/SMU law for polytechnic graduates.

Do polytechnic graduates, despite shattering the concrete ceiling, usually end up getting outclassed by their JC peers at the local universities? Apart from the said polytechnic JLCs, I have not seen any other polytechnic students graduating with a FCH/SCL or high MCL (>3.75) from NUS/SMU. Is this indicative that a polytechnic education poorly equips students for subsequent legal education?

It’s ironic how you talked abt liberalisation when you yourself have a bias towards a certain segment. It’s naive and disturbing to say the least.
