2 thoughts on “Law”
I am an American lawyer. Which means I spent 4 years to earn my bachelors and then 3 years to earn my law degree.
I have a 16 year old son who will be heaing off to college next year. Like most 16 year olds he has no idea what he wants to do. I have suggested to him that he study for an LLB outside the US. That would give him a useable trade in the time he would only be able to earn a general bachelor’s degree in the states. But I have some questions:
1. In which countries are LLBs offered?
2. Are LLBs recognized in the states? In other words, would an LLB be a recognized pre-requisite to taking the bar exam in the US?
