I know how unique this may sounds.

I am a law school graduate from Cairo university. I also got my LL.M from George Washington University and sitting for the NY bar in July 2014.

Wondering if anybody around with similar background. I am also happy to answer any questions that can help anybody welling to pursue same path.

Cheers

Was the degree from Cairo an undergraduate or graduate degree? Do you plan on practicing in the US or in Egypt? If someone is interested in working in the Middle East, do you think it is useful to attend law school in that region? Are you actually Egyptian and if so, what are your opinions on Sisi?

Hi,

It is an LL.B. aka Bachelor.

The classification is different, than grad/undergrad if you compare it to the hierarchy of how it is here. I am planning on Arbitration/FDA area. So if things go well, I will be practicing here in the states cases involving international matters.

Yes I am Egyptian, but I have no opinion of SISI yet since I am studying like a freak these days. I guess we should give him a chance and wish him luck, and wish the country our best :)

Hi, there

I am just wondering if this university is generous with scholaship benefits?
