Master of Laws is divided into Master of Laws (Law) and Master of Laws (Illegal Studies). The former is also called Master of Law, and only law undergraduates can take the exam. The latter is generally called Fa Shuo, and only illegal undergraduate students can take the exam.
Since 2000, law graduates (including equivalent academic qualifications) are no longer allowed to apply for the exam, and only illegal graduates with bachelor's degrees (or equivalent academic qualifications) are recruited. For law graduates, it is encouraged to apply for master of law, which greatly reduces the competitive pressure of the examination.
From 2009, law graduates can also apply for the Master of Law, and the degree name is Master of Law (Law); Non-law graduates can only apply for master of laws (illegal studies).
