Introduction of the Education Industry
3.1) Education Industry in India
The Indian education industry is poised for growth. This sector is changing rapidly
with more private players entering the field. The government is also taking many measures to
improve the quality of education in India. This industry is going to achieve its peak as the
idea of business via education catches up.
Fifty percent of India's population is the youth. This means that the Indian education
sector is huge with a population of 1.13 billion. India has around 367 universities, 18,000
colleges, about half a million teachers, and 11 million pupils. The private education industry
is estimated to be between 20,00025,000 crores. There are about 1,500 management
institutes, 3,500 engineering institutes, and 1,200 medical colleges in the country.
As of 2008, Indias post-secondary high schools offer only enough seats for 7% of
Indias college-age population, 25% of teaching positions nationwide are vacant, and 57% of
college professors lack either a masters or PhD degree. As of 2007, there is 1522 degree-
granting engineering colleges in India with an annual student intake of 582,000, plus 1,244
polytechnics with an annual intake of 265,000. However, these institutions face shortage of
faculty and concerns have been raised over the quality of education.
3.2) Educational institute: - There are main two types of educational institute, 1).
Formal education institute and 2). Supplementary Industry or coaching Institute.
Supplemental education industry/Coaching industry has been one of the fastest
growing sectors in last decade. If you look into late 80s or early 90s, there were hardly 2-3
prominent players in India but today this market is crowded with enough number of players.
We may see the list of the leading coaching centre across India, Career Launcher, PT
education, Endeavour, TIMES, Navigator, etc.

From swanky offices to teachers earning salaries in lakhs and crores, this segment of
education industry has got lot of potential going forward. Today, with increasing number of
students appearing for each and every entrance examination the competition became tough to
get admission in university of our choice; students need proper guidance and training to crack
the State or national level entrance examination.
A decade or two back the word coaching or tuition was an option for the weak
students, but now it is as much a norm for any student esp. the aspirants of exams like IIT,
AIEEE, CLAT, CAT, MAT, GCET, JEE etc.

The education industry consists of schools, colleges, universities and
various private institutions.
The education sector can be broadly classified into three categories:

Primary education: This includes the education offered from nursery to the twelfth
grade by various public, private and religious schools.
Higher education: This includes various state-run and private collages and
universities. This also includes Med Schools, Law Schools and Business Schools.
Vocational education: This includes industry/job oriented education, based on the
apprenticeship method of learning.
The education industry is not just restricted to these categories. It also includes
ancillary education services, such as after school tutoring, charter schools, special oralternative education, educational content suppliers and professional development of
administrators and teachers.
3.3) History of the Education Industry
Education has been practiced since time immemorial to instill social and cultural
values. In the ancient times, the education system was verbal, carried out generally by the
elders of the family. The writing system developed around 3500 BC, enabling the recordingand sharing of information. In most ancient societies, the state of literacy was bleak for
centuries.
The education industry was initially associated with law, trade and
commerce, religion and civil administration. Formal education was available to only a small
fraction of the population. The system developed in most countries after 1850 CE.
The modern education industry consists of training by professionals and organized
instructions with respect to systematic curricula and pedagogy.
Education is the base for economic growth as well as social transformation for any
country. Among all the key indicators of socio-economic development like economy's growth
rate, literacy rate, birth rate, death rate and infant mortality rate (IMR), the literacy rate of the
country is one of the most vital one as the rise and fall of others largely depend upon
country's literacy rate. In India, high literacy rate leads to low birth rate as well as low IMR
8/3/2019 Summer Internship Project on LST Final by Shreya Patel
6/56
and it also increases life expectancy rate. So, the importance of education industry in India
can be understood.
The education system in India is much more improved these days and is one of the leading
ones in the world. It is also one of the biggest contributors to the economic growth of the
nation. Besides various government initiatives, the role of the private institutions in the
development of education industry in India cannot be denied.
The private education market in India is estimated to be worth $40 billion in 2008 and will
increase to $68 billion by 2012. However, India continues to face challenges. Despite
growing investment in education, 35% of the population is illiterate and only 15% of the
students reach high school.

11/56
objective. The goal-setting process forms the core of academic delivery in any CL program.
The faculty at CL works as facilitator rather than a teacher. They mentor, guide and assist
learning. The central research and development team designs and validates each program
with a pilot batch of students before the program is launched in CL.

Instructional Design theories. In a typical academic year, highly qualified subject experts put

content and create distinct copyrighted content for the various programs of CL.
Our expert mentors and faculty are qualified engineers, eminent professors, PhDs and
management graduates from prestigious institutes such as IITs, IIMs, NITs and other top-
notch universities. They continue to go through rigorous training, brainstorming and analysis
sessions at our training school - the Inner Circle. They challenge themselves by taking
various entrance examinations each year.
Success Mantra
At CL we believe that students succeed singularly because of their own efforts. CL only
mentors its students and provides them with a learning environment to bring out the winner in
them. The inputs from CL remaining the same for each student, success depends on the
aspiration, tenacity and perseverance at the individual level.
Core idea:
Mentoring at CL
Mentoring is a process integral to the existence of CL. Experienced mentors counsel the

Career Launcher advocates the belief that it is up to each one of us to come forward and
shoulders our responsibility towards our environment. It endeavors to promote a culture of
energy conservation among its employees.
Communications and databases involved in HR processes and appraisals are strictly kept
online, which results in considerable reduction in paper usage. Recently, when CL required
8/3/2019 Summer Internship Project on LST Final by Shreya Patel
14/56
new servers, it went for Sun Fire T2000s, which are considered the world's first eco-
responsible servers.
Last June, 8 students from NSIT, Delhi approached Career launcher with a not so common
initiative, which was to support them for making a Solar Car, which would enable them to
participate in a rally in South Africa. Although it was a very unusual proposal when
compared with the regular college sponsorships Career Launcher involves in, it was found to
be very much in tune with our core values. Thus, CL went ahead with the sponsorship, and
was made proud by the team when it finished as Second Runners up in the World Solar
Racing Competition, at Pretoria.
Besides providing educational opportunities, Career Launcher desires to play its part in
preserving our Earth's beauty and its gifts that we inherited from our ancestors, for our
children.
Career Launcher, in its quest to democratize quality education, found it only natural to extend
its reach to the rural, underprivileged section of our society. The future of our nation depends
greatly upon the education of today's children, and with a vast section of our society existing
below the poverty line; it becomes imperative to take an initiative that effectivelydisseminates quality education at a reasonable cost.
8/3/2019 Summer Internship Project on LST Final by Shreya Patel

With its 'Bottom of Pyramid' schools, Career Launcher is looking to carry forward such an
initiative. These schools especially address the educational needs of our underprivileged
children, function with the dual objectives of maintaining standards of 'excellence' along with
widespread 'access'.
Career Launcher has initiated 10 Bop schools, in Andhra Pradesh, as its pilot project. Based
on the learnings from these schools, Career Launcher will go on to establish an ever
widening web of Bop schools all over our nation.
n collaboration with Roshni Academy, Career Launcher Education Foundation organized an
intensive two-week training program in June 2008 for 30 girls. At the end of the programme,
half of the students were awarded a full university scholarship by Nurul Hasan Education
Foundation.
These underprivileged students got access to Career Launchers personality development
training with special emphasis on English speaking, Computer Literacy, Communication and
Public Speaking; advice on important topics such as health, nutrition, hygiene, and also
access to key resources such as health clinics, legal clinics, digital equalizer centers and
8/3/2019 Summer Internship Project on LST Final by Shreya Patel

microfinance banks.
Speaking about the initiative, Ms. Uma Narayanan, Program Director, CLEF, said We take
pride in this cause to serve the society. Our efforts have been to train these students to help
them become self dependent.
The success of this pilot programme has strengthened Career Launchers resolve to involve in
ever-greater endeavors focused towards nurturing tomorrow's leaders.
Besides providing placement opportunities and employability enhancement skills for college
students, as well as sales and customer service executives in BFSI and FMCG industries,
Skill School also aims at reaching out to rural India through government and corporate
partnership ventures. Its Livelihood Skills Programme and Government Partnerships wings
are geared towards these objectives, and are actively involved in the process of creating
opportunities while networking with potential employers. The goal is to touch as many lives
as possible, and as soon as possible, which is the most effective strategy while addressing a
country such as India, with millions of unemployed people.
Currently, Career Launcher is operating such training institutes in Haryana, Punjab, Andhra
Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra and Chattisgarh. In collaboration with the Rajasthan
8/3/2019 Summer Internship Project on LST Final by Shreya Patel
17/56
Government, under the Rajasthan Mission on Livelihood (RMoL) project, Career Launcher
has established two training centers, at Bikaner and Jhunjhunu.
On the birth anniversary of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, a blood donation camp was
organized at the Career Launcher Corporate Office in Okhla, New Delhi.
The camp was conducted in association with the AIIMS Trauma centre. More than 50
employees of Career Launcher donated blood on this occasion.
Amongst the key donors were Satya - Chairman of Career Launcher, Gautam Puri - ViceChairman, and the Directors and other employees of the organization.
This was the first of the 120+ blood donation camps that Career Launcher plans to organize
at all the locations where it is present in India. This is an initiative towards "Building India"
involving the youth of the nation. Career Launcher intends to make this an annual property
towards its efforts in Building the Nation.

Career Launcher is always eager to do its bit towards uplifting society and creating an
environment that offers opportunities for all. It involves itself with several events that address
the needs of our society and inspire our youth to come forward and help shoulder ourcollective responsibility.
Last November, Career Launcher held an event called Confluence at The Capitol, Bangalore,
which dealt with the following issues: current industrial scenario, competence building and
trends in global and national economy. The event was a roaring success with panelists such as
Capt Girish, Sr HR Manager at TCS, Preeti Prayag, HR Manager at Sun Microsystems and
Prof Narahari, Head Placement at RVCE.
Tycoons: Tycoons is a national level, personality-centric, on-campus event, which aims at
providing a platform to the future youth leaders of our country. The idea is to provide our
youth an opportunity to hone and showcase their leadership skills. The first Tycoons event
took place in 2005, and its reception and popularity among the youth propelled its success
and scope, year after year. Tycoons 2009 will cover 2000 colleges, spread over 110 cities and

CHAPTER - 4
Introduction of the Project
1.1) LST (Low school tutorial)
LST is a premier institution in the field of law entrances and legal education. The
organization plays a critical role in developing legal education awareness through
partnerships with top law schools. In 2004 LST joined hands with one of India's leading
education corporate to expand its reach and capabilities even further. That corporate is Career
Launcher, which was founded in 1992 by a group of IIM and IIT graduates. LST is now a
division of Career Launcher and is present at more than 45 cities in the country servicing
close to 3500 students every year. The rich experience of people, who have themselves been
part of top law schools and have worked with leading industry organizations, has helped LST
grow from a leading law training operation to a national leader, a pioneer in its field of
education, and an incredibly successful business.
In 2007 nearly 75% of all students entering the top law schools were LST alumni. In 2008,
the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) was conducted for the first time and the resultsfor LST and LSTians turned out to be phenomenal. All India Rank 1 for the second
consecutive year went to an LSTian. LSTians bagged 19 out of the top 20 and 92 out of the
top 100 ranks. LST in partnership with NALSAR, NLIU and GNLU has been carrying out
legal awareness workshops, spreading awareness about careers in law and law schools itself.
That speaks volumes for the credibility of LST.
8/3/2019 Summer Internship Project on LST Final by Shreya Patel

LST today is a young and professional organization that has resources across the country and
a smart, experienced team that works to support law aspirants and law students through a
wide variety of products and offerings.

1.2)History of LST
The Conception
It all began in Nagarbhavi, once a sleepy little suburb tucked away among some hillocks just
outside Bangalore, now the hotbed of Indian legal education, and home to the National Law
School of India University.
LST was conceived in the autumn of 1999 by a group of NLSIU students and alumni. Having
gone through the rigorous and often confusing examination and admission process ourselves,
we perceived the need for an organization that could provide a clear and comprehensive
guide to the bewildering territory of law school examinations and admissions. This goal has
evidently been reached, with hundreds of students admitted in the best law schools in India,
including NLSIU, NALSAR and NUJS, despite the very limited number of seats available.
The Founders
The founding members of LST Team have each achieved professional success and worked
with leading industry organizations. Sachin Malhan graduated from NLSIU in 2002, as did
two other founding members, Badri Natarajan and Sameer Singh. Mamta Sundara, who
graduated from the NLSIU in 1999, joined LST in its infancy to play a key role in its early
years.
Sachin worked on high profile corporate transactions and litigation with Amarchand
Mangaldas, arguably India's finest corporate law firm, before leaving to direct all his energies
at LST, which he established into one of the leading preparatory training organisations in the
country and continues to be associated with intimately.
Sameer, Badri and Mamta, while no longer involved in its management, still advise and guide
LST. Badri completed an LL.M at the London School of Economics and works with leading
international law firm Clifford Chance in London. Sameer played a vital role in the
foundation and setting up of LST before leaving LST to avail of the prestigious Rhodes
scholarship at Oxford University. Sameer currently works at the leading consulting firm
Boston Consulting Group. Mamta Sundara presently works with British Telecom in
Singapore after several years at leading Indian law firms.

Aside from the original founder group there are others whose contributions have shaped LST
into the pioneering force that it is today. Padmini Menon, who anchored LST operations for
the longest time, endearing herself to our first few batches, Bhavin Patel, NLSIU batch of
2002, shaped LSTs legal reasoning delivery into an unparalleled learning experience; Maj
Gen. Ram Naidu (retd.) and Sheila Sudheendra led the development of the second version of
LSTs training material - content that received phenomenal feedback from students across the
country and led to record-breaking results in the 2007 exams; Robin Louis, who was largely
responsible for lawentrance.com becoming the force that it is today and Senthil Kumar, who
has done more legal education awareness building than is humanly possible.
How LST helps the Students?
Career option after 12th standard:
One of the Most Important Decision in the Life of a Young person is to choose an
Educational Program that leads to a Career or Profession. It is a life long commitment for the
young people to choose the Best Career Options after their 12th or choosing a Career option
after graduation.
8/3/2019 Summer Internship Project on LST Final by Shreya Patel
25/56
For 12th standard in any Stream, What to do after 12th? This is the biggest question in 12th
class/ HSC students mind today.
Courses available for commerce students after 12th:
There are many graduation, professional diploma and degree courses and career options
available to students after 12th STD class in commerce stream like diplomas and bachelor
degrees like B.Com, BBA, BMS, BBM, CFA, CA, ICWA, CFP, etc.
Courses available for science students after 12th:
There are many graduation, professional diploma and degree courses and career options
available to students after 12th std class for science, biology, non medical and computer
8/3/2019 Summer Internship Project on LST Final by Shreya Patel
26/56
science stream like diplomas and bachelor degrees like B.Sc, B.E, B.Tech, MBBS, BHM,
BCA, hotel management, engineering, medical, computers, etc
Courses available for Arts students after 12 th:
There are many graduation, professional diploma and degree courses and career options
available to students after 12th STD class for arts students, stream like diplomas and bachelor
degrees like B.A, B.F.A, and B.A.LLB etc.
But regarding these courses there is also available one course regarding Law. Those students
who are interested in law and want to make career in law can directly take admission in
nationalize Law school situated all over India.
8/3/2019 Summer Internship Project on LST Final by Shreya Patel
27/56
LST helps those students who are interested in law and they want to make career in law as
well.
LST is the place to be for any law aspirants.
LST give the student basic framework and foundation.
Why study law?
What do you love about the law, Andrew?
I... many things... uh... uh... What I love the most about the law?
Yeah.
It's that every now and again--not often, but occasionally--you get to be a part of justice
being done. That really is quite a thrill when that happens.(Dialogue from the court scene in the motion picture Philadelphia, 1993)
Except for those fortunate ones with lawyers in the family, the rest of us grew up thinking of
lawyers as black & white social outcasts chirping the occasional 'mee lord' in B-grade
bollywood flicks. Most of us never even contemplated law as a career option when we made
those vital decisions of picking careers. However over the last decade the popular perception
of the law degree has changed dramatically. Law has become a strong and versatile career
option inspired by world class law schools such as the National Law School in Bangalore andsubsequently NUJS in Kolkata, NALSAR in Hyderabad, NLU in Jodhpur and NLIU in
8/3/2019 Summer Internship Project on LST Final by Shreya Patel
28/56
Bhopal. The older institutions such as the legendary Government Law College in Bombay
and the equally famous Faculty of Law in Delhi have responded positively and pruned their
curriculum to face up to the challenge. The result - the five year law degree has all the
ingredients to make it a excellent career option.
Alumni of the top law schools, notably the National Law School in Bangalore, have excelled
in diverse areas. They walk the corridors of the Supreme Court, the various High Courts, the
top corporate law firms and business houses, agencies of the United Nations and the other
stellar organizations. Alumni of these colleges even teach at leading law schools such as
Oxford and Harvard. The reason why such a variety of jobs and further study options are
available is the versatility of the five year law degree. Civil and criminal law are no longer
the principal pillars of the five year law degree as students also study corporate and
commercial law, mediation and negotiation, international law, intellectual property law,
environmental law and human rights law, just to name a few disciplines. Consequently, the
degree equips you, not just to be an accomplished lawyer but also a businessman, bureaucrat,
diplomat, social activist or academician. Job applicants amongst the graduating batch at the
National Law School this year were recruited at average annual salaries comparable to the top
management schools. It goes without saying that financially the profession is hugely
rewarding.
What do Lawyers do?
"No brilliance is required in law, just common sense and relatively cleans fingernails."
John Mortimer
While searching for the perfect quote to begin this explanation of what lawyers really do, I
faced the same problem I'm sure a lot of other people must have faced down the ages: people
simply do not have nice things to say about lawyers! While jokes, one-liners and snide-asides
aimed at lawyers abound, not many people have taken the time to explain in simple words the
work that lawyers perform on an everyday basis!
Fortunately, you won't have to look much further than the quote above. At the most basic
level, lawyers apply common sense to everyday and extraordinary situations alike. If you're
smart, think well on your feet, and love proving your point, the law is for you!
8/3/2019 Summer Internship Project on LST Final by Shreya Patel
29/56
Whether it's an intricate issue of constitutional law that will help preserve our fundamental
rights, or a matter involving a simple traffic violation, a lawyer is called upon to resolve
conflicts between people through the application of simple, everyday, common sense.
Lawyers do this in various places, and through different means. The most familiar image, of
course, if of lawyers screaming their lungs out in courts of law, wearing what looks to some
of us like a tacky black bathrobe more than anything else! Litigating lawyers, as these
lawyers are called, represent their clients in court. Litigating lawyers are called upon to argue
various kinds of issues, ranging from property matters to criminal matters, constitutional
issues to matters of family law. Black and white and vociferous, these lawyers argue the law
to make sure that their clients' interests are represented in the best possible manner before
those that will decide matters of a whole lot of importance to a whole lot of people.
Other lawyers work with corporate houses or in law firms that service corporate. Here,
lawyers work mainly as facilitators, helping companies work smoothly, efficiently, and
within the boundaries of the law. Lawyers help business work in the best possible manner,
and are an extremely important part of any business transaction. Huge mergers, large stock
market issues, and foreign investments are all very cool to talk about, but unless you have
someone who understands how these things work, and can get them done in the best possible
way, all you'll ever do is talk about them! Simply put, without lawyers, many corporate
would find themselves struggling to understand how to actually put their ideas in place.
Lawyers make it happen!
Lawyers are sometimes also referred to as 'social engineers'. As you would know, our society,
the way we live, and what we do everyday, are all loosely bound by a mesh of rules that we
call 'laws'. It is the job of lawyers to understand these rules, and to help people live their lives
most meaningfully. Many lawyers help people in distress, advocating areas that they are
concerned about, such as child rights, women's issues, or the protection of refugees. If you
really want to make a difference to people's lives, if you're actually concerned about
something, and if you actually want to go out there and get something done right, this is the
way to go for you!!!
Aside from these, lawyers today work with people from every walk of life, interpreting laws,
applying legal principles, and, above all, helping people tackle problems on every scale.
Simply put, an ideal lawyer is a smart, intelligent person who applies common sense to

common and uncommon problems alike, and helps people find their paths out of the
wilderness.
1.3) Career Options
Corporate Counsel
Several law students opt to work with the in-house legal department of a corporate after
graduating from law school. Legal managers play a critical role in the functioning of a
company, and are responsible for drafting, vetting, and in several cases, negotiating contracts
for the company, ensuring and monitoring compliance with laws, and handling legal disputes
that the company may be involved in. Corporate counsel are required to interact with severaldifferent functions in a company, understand business and operations needs, and serve these
needs in a manner that is both suitable and legal. Exposure to some of the best legal minds in
the country is a given, as corporate counsel 'brief' leading lawyers who appear for the
company in courts and tribunals. GE Capital, ICICI Bank, ITC, IBM, Infosys, Satyam,
Wipro, Dr. Reddy's, Biocon, Price water house Coopers, KPMG and HLL are some corporate
giants that frequent law school campus recruitment programs.
Litigation
A law firm is usually a partnership between lawyers who have come together to offer their
expertise to clients under one name. These partners share the profits of the firm as well as the
risks (liabilities), and engage other lawyers to work with them as associates. These associates
can work at the firm for a period of time, and, provided they establish their competence at
work, can even become partners at the firm and share in the profits and management of the
firm. Law firms cater to the interests of companies and private individuals alike, though most
of the large law firms deal exclusively with corporate houses, i.e. companies. Work at a law
firm involves dealing with a wide variety of problems that may or may not be restricted to a
particular area of the law (depending on the specialization and culture of the firm).
The top Indian law firms offer salaries that can go as high as 6 lacs a year (with the
occasional offer reaching as much as 10 lacs). Foreign law firms (with foreign postings) offer
salaries that can go as high as 16 lacs.

Social Work
Law schools often include several courses designed to address relevant social issues in their
course curriculum, including gender concerns, caste-based discrimination, employment,
working conditions, environmental protection and the marginalization of various peoples.
Most law schools take this a step further: NLS, for example, deals with these matters in detail
through the Centre for the Child and the Law (CCL), the Centre for Women and the Law
(CWL), the Centre for Law and Economic Analysis and Research (CLEAR) and the Centre
for Environmental Law Education Research and Advocacy (CEERA). These centers address
such issues through various research projects and action plans. Students work with professors
on the same projects and the Government often takes the assistance of these centers. The
effect of such exposure is reflected in the fact that a sizeable number of law school students
join Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) that work with these issues. Graduates from
law school are also offered opportunities to work with international organizations such as the
United Nations and with international war and crime tribunals.
Law and Business
A graduate of a good law school takes away skills that are applicable in almost any walk of
life. Skills such as good communication, problem solving, risk identification, and dispute
resolution are priceless in the world of business. If you dig business management then there is
a road ahead! There are three broad routes you could think of - one is gunning for a business
management job immediately after law school; the second is making the shift from a legal job
to a business management job; and the third is to go do an MBA. There are pros and cons
with each choice. Let me list them out for your reading convenience.
Academia
Now, how many institutions can boast of training a student, right from the moment they step
in? How many colleges have their students make 5-6 presentations every three months, and
the fact that these are adjudicated by the best legal brains in the country, it entails for not just
the best possible research but also forces them to push the envelope. And when the earnings
for the same happen to be in dollars, who wouldnt want do it?

In a National Law School, a law students develops a personality where he not just follows up
whatever is given to him, in his zest for learning the rules governing the country, but also
digs deep into all possibilities of a given situation, for example when a Union Budget is
passed by the Parliament, he wont just go through it and feel okay about how the funds were
allocated, rather he will form an opinion, a critical one at times and would not be afraid to air
it, by sharing the same with some of the best Publishers, Web portals. Given the high
knowledge content and the out of the box thinking pattern reflected in the article, the result is
often that it gets published in the National journals needless to say there are obvious
incentives attached to such articles.
Research in a law school is not just confined to a specific field; today an average law student
has to conduct studies and examine issues on diverse fields ranging from Intellectual Property
Rights, Environment Law, Space Law, to International Arbitration.
Academics, Pursuing teaching as career option comes good to those who have a desire and a
passion for it, National law School Alumnus form the part of countries best faculties
throughout the Top National Law Schools of the country.
Media and Law
If you're curious and good at communicating, this one's could be you. Working as a journalist
is not only socially relevant (which means you can have tremendous job satisfaction), but
also carries the promise of being monetarily rewarding.
A legal education already equips you with comprehensive writing and researching skills,
besides teaching you to be thorough with facts and figures. You have the option of reporting
on legal issues for which you need no additional training, or on a host of other issues for
which on the job learning is the best bet. The most attractive aspect about a career in
journalism is that a liberal arts education is more than sufficient for this profession.
The skills one picks up at law school are more than sufficient for a journalist-what's more it's
on the job learning that matters more. Indeed, employers do regularly conduct workshops for
the rookies. As long as you're interested in an occupation that's socially relevant, and willing
to pursue a career that is not strictly connected to the law, this is certainly a very exciting
avenue to explore. As far as job satisfaction goes, if one speaks to lawyers who have taken up
journalism, they say this is something that makes you feel alive, and the very fact that you're
8/3/2019 Summer Internship Project on LST Final by Shreya Patel
33/56
doing a service to society is something which holds tremendous satisfaction. Whether or not
you mind detaching yourself from the law remains an individual choice. What is clear though
is that journalism offers both challenges and rewards, and is an intellectually stimulating
experience.

Publication Date:30 June 2011
This article is specifically intended to be read by those career aspirants who wish
to see themselves away from Engineering, Medical or Commerce fields after they
complete their senior secondary education in school. The emerging Indian urban middle
class has engaged into this decade old fire fighting race of pushing their wards towards B
Tech colleges or towards medical courses. Just because thousands of private colleges
have sprawled up along the highways offering engineering courses, it becomes easy for
even a below average student to get into them and come out with a B Tech Degree

Students preference for the coaching institute is different as per the different students. As
per the above data 34 students give first rank to the experience faculty, and 6 students
gave 2nd rank to it. While brand name of the institute also plays a major role while
students are selecting their coaching institute, 6 of the students gave 1 st rank to the brand

Results of the past students are also the important factors for the students and so 23
students give 2nd rank to it followed by the courseware selected by 20 students.
Well, 14 students gave 5th rank to the fees structure and 26 students gave 5th rank to the
reference of the past students. This analysis gives the idea about the students preference,
which helps the institute to build a strategy for development of the LST program.

Findings
Today, education industry growing rapidly, there are many institutions and
courses develop remarkably for the students. Today many new courses are
provided by the different institutions like government as well as private
institutions.
Most of the students prefer traditional courses either by force of the parents or
may due to lack knowledge of the other better career options available by the
government and private institutions.
Most of the students are not aware about the CLAT and they dont have any
idea about the 5 year integrated course provide by the National Law
University
Those students are aware about the CLAT; among those students many of the
students are aware about the LST program.

8/3/2019 Summer Internship Project on LST Final by Shreya Patel

Recommendation
SUGGESTIONS AND RECOMMENDATION:
Law awareness among the students is very less, and so makes them aware about
the law and also let them know about how to make a successful career in law.
LST program makes students ready for law entrance exam, so when students
come to know about the CLAT and about another option after 12th they will take
interest in doing so.
English medium students are taking much more interest in doing law and from therespondent some of them are also know about the CLAT and some also aware
about the LST also. Whole talking about the Gujarati medium students they have
less knowledge about the law entrance test and so company should segment the
area for the making of the strategy.
Company should more focus on their target area. Sometime it happens that
students are aware about the law entrance test but they are not having proper
guidance. So more and more focus on conducting the seminar in the school and
make poster everywhere so they can get solution about their problem.
Students from commerce background and from the English medium school are
giving more response so company should more focus on that area.

CONCLUSION
Base on survey results some of the key finding has been identified and that has been
justified. Base on survey result it was interpreted on pie charts and tabulated forms. Andthen some of the key criteria have been identified.
Majority of the respondents are from any field are not aware of the 5 year legal program.
Only few of the students who are from legal background are aware of the 5 year
integrated law course.
Many of the respondent coming from science background are interested in medical,
pharmacy and from commerce background are interested in CA and MBA. But from
commerce background students are also interested in law but they have no idea about 5
year degree course offered by national law university.
Since medium of school is also makes more importance because from the survey also
observed that English medium students are more aware about the law entrance test, and
also they give positive response about the Law.
From the study of awareness about law, results shows that students who are really
interested in law and they are aware about the law entrance test are aware about the LST.
The study shows that those students are aware about the CLAT are from commerce
background and are aware about the LST.
Students preference about the career is more important. Students and parents arefollowing one another at the time of choosing a career option. Mostly parents take
decision about their childs career. They suggest their child to select a best career for
them.
The most important point is making them aware about the entire field, and about all the
pros and cons of the each field and let them to think about their interest in particular field.
Students and parents are giving more response to direct communication. Direct contacts
to the students by arranging seminars in the school are making them aware about the law
and about its wide career scope.
