Unfortunately this is the low-paying and arduous route they make wanna-be Profs go through…

If only i had money to go for an Oxbridge undergrad law degree, can skip all these nonsense steps.

It’s almost like a P2P mmorpg.

Wasn't there a mass exodus of young academics from NUS Law recently? I wonder what happened.

wad do u mean by best type of work among mid tiers? just because they have flashy website n linkedin savvy partners/lawyers?

i also dont think they're the market leader in comp alr. the plain vanilla big4s are paying their NQs same if not more

Fervent is arguably better than Dentons. Joke of a firm.

Say so much but do these firms do wall street work not. TSMP is one of the few mid tier firms that are ranked pari passu with Big 5 and baker on chambers

Lol if you don't know don't talk crap leh.

I am currently teaching at NUS and I can tell you the progression does not work that way at all.
