sir i am law graduate. prafticed for 2 years.after marriage i wasnt allowed to praftice.Now after 35 years i intend to practice.Attended few interviews, but now age bar,no experience in any firm,and they mostly hire young freshers,interns.I dont have any clue what to do for future.but i want to work instead of sitting idel.what kind of job can i start where i can make sone money? either in law or other short term course which has prospects?

Ans: I'm sorry ...are you saying after 35 yrs you want to restart law practice!?

In order to practice the applicant must have attained the age of 21 years. There is no upper age limit for admission as an advocate, as affirmed by the Supreme Court in the case of Indian Council of Legal Aid and Advice vs. Bar Council of India (AIR 1995 Supreme Court 691).12 Feb 2024

Start representing people in simple matters as a standalone advocate, decide whether you want to specialise in Civil OR Criminal law... also know effective 1st July 2024 the IPC,Code of Criminal Procedure & Indian Evidence Act has been replaced by the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanchita, Bharatiya Nagarika Suraksha Sanhita, Bharatiya Sakshya Adhinyam...

Now that's a task to learn all this over again every legal professional and Judge's to will have to come in tune with this.. Are you ready for the grind.!?

I am 25, a law graduate. After completing my degree, I interned with a law firm but realised that I don’t enjoy litigation. I’m now confused about whether to explore corporate law, academia, or something entirely different. I feel like I lack direction. I worry a lot about wasting my time in the wrong career. Can you help me figure out what I can do next?

Ans: Dear Sir/ Madam,

If you are not interested in Law then try and reflect what kind of career will entice you. Figure out your interest areas by doing Swot analysis. Worrying is not going to help instead act. Hope this helps.

Thanks

I need career guidance, I am a recent graduate of my law degree but I was too immature to take that seriously at that time I kept thinking I will change my career from this and I kind of wasted my whole 5 years now i want to persue my career in corporate law only, but I am not able to find any internship of law firm. Can you guide me what should I do? Should I take any short course or what?

Ans: Transitioning into corporate law requires a focused strategy. Start by assessing your background and setting clear goals. Enhance your knowledge with targeted short courses, certifications, and industry seminars. Gain practical experience through internships, volunteer work, or freelance projects in legal departments—even if traditional law firm internships are scarce. Expand your network by engaging with professional organizations, alumni, and online platforms. Finally, tailor your resume and cover letter to highlight relevant coursework and experiences while addressing any gaps. Staying informed about industry trends and remaining persistent will help you break into corporate law. All the Best for your Prosperous Future.

Question by Faiza - Jun 05, 2025

Career

Sir I want to get into mbbs only but this yr was my first drop.. My parents said take partial drop and i will try hard how it matters to. Me..so sir if i take btech in bioinformatics can i give neet again will i be eligible

Ans: Hello Faiza.
Drop the idea of either full or partial preparation for NEET. You have already taken one drop and know how much study is required in this tough competition. It would be better to focus more on B.Tech in Bioinformatics. The course is good, has wide applications, and offers excellent job opportunities. You can give the NEET at any time as there is no upper age limit. If you crack it with the required cutoff, you can get admission to MBBS.
Best of luck.

Sir i got 81 % in class 12 and pcm 76.5% ,jee main percentile is 58.10 . I want to persue B tech CSE. I am living in delhi ncr.....kindly suggest some good options. Riyank Ahuja

Ans: Hello Riyank Ahuja.
Given your JEE score, it may not be possible to secure a free seat for CSE. However, there are numerous private colleges in Delhi NCR where you can visit the administration office in person to inquire about the availability of the CSE branch through management quota. Additionally, consider participating in the state-level counseling process to explore options. If necessary, be open to accepting an offer in any computer-related branch if CSE is not available.
Best of luck.

Question by Mallika - Jun 05, 2025

Career

Sir,my son got 5059 rank in JEE Advance and 5438 in JEE Mains. Please give the priority order among these. IIT Ropar (ECE), IIT Bhuvaneswar (ECE), IIT Patna (ECE), NIT Warangal (ECE), IIIT B CSE. We are in big confusion whether to chose these IITs or most reputed NITW? we are from HYDERABAD.

Ans: Hello Mallika
Congratulations to you and your son on your tremendous success in the JEE Advanced. Here is the preference order for you: (1) IIT Patna (2) IIT Ropar (3) IIIT Bhubaneswar (4) NIT Warangal (5) IIIT B CSE. There should be no confusion in choosing between IIT and NIT. Prefer IIT over NIT if your son is offered a seat there. You might be considering this from a broader perspective. No doubt, NIT Warangal can be a preferred choice compared to any IIT for you. Yet the prestige of IIT will always outweigh that of NIT. The final choice will ultimately be yours.

With the mentioned score, you have moderate or slim chances of getting a seat in any GMC with the mentioned courses. Yet do not lose hope and take active participation in the counseling process. If you are financially sound, they try in some private colleges via management quota.

passed 12th in 2023-2024 but I could not take JEE Advanced in 2024. Can I take JEE Advanced in 2025 and 2026? And what will be my 12th passing year?

Ans: Hello Nisha
JEE Adv 2025 is over. You are not eligible to appear for JEE 2026 as you passed the 12th in 2024. By rule, a student can appear twice in two consecutive years. i.e., your chances are for 2024 and 2025. Explore more options. Success in JEE mean success in life is not the proven equation.
