Hi,
The initiative - 'Teach For India' is one of such platforms where one can get a plenty of experiences having a huge power to teach you every single thing. I feel, yes, taking its fellowship is surely worth it.
I am sure that every decision that we take has its own pros and cons and it totally depends upon how we take these tough experiences.
At 'Teach For India' everything seems quite perfect. This is an ideal and a lovely place to work. There are a few people who are really dedicated to make it a success.
One can learn much about the ground realities of the education sector. You get to have chance to converse with thought leaders in leading education companies.

Indraprastha University however is a good university in Delhi NCR and some of its colleges are quite good for LLB.
Amity (IP) is one amongst the most preferred by students after NLUs, due to its proximity in terms of Delhi region and you get a lot of exposure. The infrastructure is good and you have a very well developing Moot Court Culture there, which is very much required for a budding lawyer. Also, the faculty and library is good and above all, the Delhi region in itself gives a lot of opportunities for growth of students.
VIPS is another such college that has seen preference by students and the students do boast of the infrastructure and the academics.
However, placements are not as impressive as in Amity IP.
Also, university law center of Guru Gobind Singh, IP University is also a preference by students lately owing to the professional attitude, and also the quality of faculty and the trust in University.
Overall these three colleges are much preferred by students when it comes to IP University.

Well VIPS is comparatively new institution, but it is doing well and is improving.
However, you can't expect much as of now, as not many firms visit the campus and it is mostly the tier 3 or newer law firms with not very good package. Also, there is no average package as such, as I mentioned it is a comparatively new institute and firms visit the institutes based on their batches.
The students however may opt for CLAT PG and get a job in PSUs like ONGC IOCl GAIL etc., which depends on their ranks mostly.
Also, other opportunities that a law graduate has are available to the graduate form VIPS.
Though not much opportunities are available as of now in campus, but yes with time there would be an improvement in the placement structure
However, students have options of Judiciary UPSC and IBPS exams available to them at every time. Also, a law graduate is much eligible to have his own practice as well.

The exam syllabus for IPU CET LLB consists of General Knowledge, Basic mathematics, English, logical reasoning and legal aptitude.
For English you may prefer wren &Martin high school grammar and for vocabulary, and passages you may opt for Word power made easy by Norman Lewis.
For mathematics, you may prefer RS Agarwal class 10th arithmetic, and basic algebra and mensuration.
For General knowledge, you may opt for Lucent's General knowledge covering static GK and any other year book such as Manorama, Pratiyogita darpan for current affairs.
For reasoning, you may again opt, R.S Agarwal book.
For legal aptitude, kindly purchase any online material by Career launcher.
Kindly go through previous year papers and mock tests.
Also, focus on reading more and practicing more.

However, LLM in itself is a course that is sufficient and is enough to take you places. Also, you do not get to have many options available while you are already pursuing a full time regular PG course.
Though you have one option that I would advise would add up to your accolades i.e. Company secretary (CS)
This is one of the parallel courses that could be easily taken up and also does not require much of commerce background.
CA would not be possible, as it involves tough subjects and also needs mandatory training which would burdensome your daily life and it would get hectic when your academics is concerned.
Thus, CS is quite possible while carrying on PG i.e. LLM .The CS course structure is quite relaxing and easy to go.
Moreover, you would have an additional plus point in your CV and this combination is preferred by many law firms and also corporate houses as you shall be deemed to have better knowledge of Corporate structure and you shall be preferred there upon.
Also, other certificate courses could be taken up as many institutes hold certificate courses in various laws.
Also, you may opt any Diplomas, including online Diplomas.

Hey there.
Well, that could be good as much as a saying is for in real this can't be the case. There is common saying about lawyers that good liars make good lawyers. By being a liar you basically end up doing a professional misconduct and that is not ethical even. You may take up a case who is believed to be an offender, but as a general rule no one is guilty until proven. Thus, there is nothing as such and one should not have this ideology while opting law as a career.
A good lawyer need to be witty and must have tact, but lying is not something that falls within the ethics of a lawyer or the profession.
Moreover, you might be presumed to be lying but as far as you prove anything with the evidences you can't be deemed a liar.
Please get rid of this and make sure that not every liar makes good lawyer, rather a person having good knowledge of subject makes him a good lawyer.

Nevertheless, all languages have their own utility and applicability but still, I would recommend you to follow 'Spanish Language'. Its syntax, grammar and even the words are similar to that of English. That's why, it is considered as the easiest language to learn. My suggestion is to look at the job market and see what jobs are out there that require more than just your native language/s and English. Then, decide which one fits what you have in mind. You might want to choose a language that is in the highest demand and pays the best by the businesses in your area. In India, Spanish, is in more demand because of its outsourcing. Many of the companies are setting up their operations in Spain, hence, they will need you. Many businesses like Travels & Tourist requires language translators who are very fluent in these languages so that they can translate those particular foreign languages into native language to facilitate the tourists. Spanish is the most widely speaking language throughout the world after English. Hence, it is in demand. Rest, depends upon your interest.
I hope this helps.
Best of luck.
