Being a lawyer in Canada
«

Dear All
I am an Indian applied for migration to Canada under FSW1 category, on October 2011
I am an electrical engineering diploma holder and my experience is more on this subjects at post secondary level
Since i am a qualified lawyer in India with LL.B (five year)and sworn in as a lawyer I would prefer to continue my carrier as a lawyer. But the problem is I have only 49.75% (third class) as my overall mark. Presently I couldn't undergo for an evaluation under NCA (National Committee on Accreditation (NCA) in Canada. What will be a good remedy to appear for the evaluation? Any other route in legal field?
Since I am 44 years, I think it will be more satisfactory to select my long term carrier goal to be a lawyer
in Canada.
According to your experience what field is more prospective in Canada?
Seniors Please Advice
