Though I had to face inevitable struggles in legal profession even after having the required qualities to succeed in profession, I always feel that the legal profession is one of the noble professions which can contribute alot to the society apart from the personal development of that particular professional. When it comes to law, I always felt that it is not important as to which college one studies, and it all depends upon the encouragement provided by few faculty members and alot depends upon the interest of that particular student to excel in his studies. I have had the privilege of associating with highly talented students even in ordinary law colleges or Government Law Colleges in this Country. It is true that a law student requires some guidance and he should have good understanding of the legal profession and the requirement of possessing certain basic qualities like drafting, thinking, logical thinking, hard-work, planning etc.
