What is the chance that after completing the courses(llb and BAR) in law, one will be a lawyer?

Well, honestly..it is difficult for you to get a job as a lawyer..that's my opinion. ( too many people are studying law nowadays, I have a friend whose father is an attorney at law and he was telling me that his dad told him not to study law because it is saturated in the market (instead he is studying accounting))
Does this applies for a laureate who wish to become a lawyer? She/he will get any job of her/his choice
Well, it depends on many factors such as the appropriate skills (e.g. clarity of speech, respect etc...) A laureate is not enough to make you get any job you want. But you do have an upper-hand over other people, aim for a first class honour degree(or a 2:1), accumulate work experience that might help you enhance skills and that you might use as a lawyer( for examples a call centre might help you develop your communication skills, receptionist might help you develop people skills, participate in debate). You are going to have many competitors, make sure you have an edge over them and show potential employers that you are the right person for this job. To avoid disappointment and to be prepared for what is to come,I would advise you to be flexible when it comes to getting a job( the harsh reality is that you might not get the job you want.).
