[QUOTE="TC fiend, post: 82792, member: 12349"] My undergrad was very broad and had a lot of public law modules. My LLM specialized in Litigation and Dispute Resolution, which set me on the path to my current job as a DR paralegal. So it definitely went into more depth in the topics I enjoyed. If you're not bolstering your academics, it's probably not worth it. I went from a small European university to a school ranked top 10 worldwide, so it made a big difference for me. Your time (and money) is probably better spent investing in yourself in other ways to get more experience under your belt! If you really want to do an LLM, there's nothing stopping you from doing one once you start practice. Lots of people in my LLM were fully-qualified lawyers who decided they wanted to do the LLM after going into practice, and got the support from their firms to do so. So I'd recommend doing that if down the line you still feel that you'd like to specialize :) [/QUOTE]
