On Question asked by student community
Both Christ University, Ghaziabad, and Symbiosis Law School, Noida, are reputed institutions for BBA LLB but have distinct advantages.
Symbiosis Noida is better established for law education and offers strong exposure due to its proximity to Delhi NCR, enabling connections with top law firms and courts. It has experienced faculty, better placement statistics, and an active student environment. However, the campus size is small, and fees are higher.
Christ Ghaziabad provides a holistic education with good academic standards and extracurricular activities but is relatively newer in law education, which may limit exposure compared to Symbiosis.
Symbiosis Noida is generally preferred for BBA LLB, especially for better placements and industry exposure

Thank you

Hello aspirant,
Hope you are doing great.
Coming to your question, NO you cannot get admission into Symbiosis without giving the SET. The admission will only be provided through the entrance exam conducted by the university. Other than this there is no other way. So, you need compulsorily give this exam.
Hope this helps!!
For corporate law placements, all three institutions—NUSRL, Jindal, and Symbiosis—are well-regarded. However, Jindal Global Law School (JGLS) is particularly strong in corporate law, with excellent placement records in top law firms and corporations. Symbiosis Law School is also well-known, but NUSRL is emerging as a strong choice. Ultimately, JGLS and Symbiosis offer more opportunities due to their established networks and infrastructure. It would be beneficial to research each institution’s curriculum, faculty, and placement records for a more informed decision.
