Law School Requirements | Careers In Law

The law school admission council (LSAC) is the first stepping stone for would be lawyers and law school attendees. The LSAC is the first port of call for the process of applying to attend law school as one of the law school requirements demanded by most law schools is the LSAT score.

LSAT score

The LSAT score is the law school admission test score from the LSAC and combined with their Credential Assembly Service (CAS) helps make the whole admission procedure smoother for applicants. The Credential Assembly Service is a service provided by the LSAC which combines all of your recommendations, evaluations, transcripts and LSAT score into one report that is then sent to the law school that you are applying to.

Short term investment

Hi Mr Tan, 
What is the best (low risk) investment instrument to use if I have 100k and I need the money in 6 months time? I do not want to leave it in my savings account as the interest rate is very low. I was introduce into dual currency investment by my bank. What's your take on it?

REPLY
For short term invstment, you have to accept the low interest rate offered by the banks. You can place it on fixed deposit to earn more than saving account.  In my case, my short term cash is kept in an auto-save account which earns a low interest rate.

You should avoid all types of dual currency investments. Read the FAQ in my website, www.tankinlian.com. Look for "Ask Mr. Tan" and search for "Dual Currency".
