1000 to 5000 CLAT Rank Vs NLUs: Top NLUs and Expected Cut-Offs
A rank of 1000 to 5000 in the revised merit list places a candidate in the top 10 percentile. However, the top NLUs for CLAT ranks 1000 to 5000 will vary across categories and the rank range. With rank of 1000-5000 in the CLAT 2025 revised result, candidates from SC/ST and OBC categories with domicile reservation can certainly make it to the premier NLUs. In this article, let’s look at which are the top NLUs for rank 1000-5000 in the CLAT 2025 revised merit list based on past cut-off trends.
The Consortium of NLUs has resumed the CLAT 2025 counselling process. The first CLAT 2025 merit list is scheduled to be published on May 26, 2025.
Is 1000 to 5000 a Good Rank in CLAT 2025?
CLAT rank 1000 to 5000 will translate into a score between 80-90+ marks. Estimates based on past NLU cut-off trends suggest that a good score in CLAT 2025 is between 90-100+ for different categories. So 1000 to 5000 may not be a good rank in CLAT 2025 for general and EWS categories for admission into tier 1 NLUs. However, these candidates can look at tier 2 and tier 3 NLUs.
Candidates can check the CLAT marks vs rank analysis to estimate the score required in the Common Law Admission Test for a rank between 1000 to 5000.
