Let's Meet a Law Student

Student Series:

Interested in learning a little bit about McGill’s Law program? Come and hear what Ommu has to say about her path to the Faculty of Law, coming from CEGEP and a Bachelor of Arts degree at McGill.

Following a brief introduction to the Faculty of Law and how the application works (until 1:25), we get into Ommu’s process of putting together an application to McGill. She shares what it was like preparing the supporting documents needed to apply to Law as a CEGEP student (3:50), and what she was considering as a second option, like a Bachelor of Arts (10:58). She also mentions how she stayed motivated during her undergraduate degree while still having an eye on a Law degree and being open to other career paths (13:30).

Ommu then shares her tips on building a CV, forming connections, and preparing the Personal Statement as a university student (18:50). Spoiler! You will have more than one draft of your Personal Statement. Listen to know what Ommu’s “lucky” number was! We also quickly talked about grades (33:10).

It is important to know about the Law program itself! Not to give everything away, but Ommu explains the bilingual aspect of the program (34:30), the amount of reading you do (37:20), and how testing works (38:50).

Before concluding with some highlights about McGill and Montreal, Ommu shares her thoughts about the transition to Law School (41:15) and some final tips for all students interested in a career in Law (46:20).
