A law student securing 70 marks in CLAT 2025 out of 120 with reservation may get a seat in NLU, but it is difficult to secure an NLU seat for general category candidates. There are various NLU and non-NLU colleges in which candidates can aim to gain admission with 70 marks in CLAT. Candidates from the general category can opt for an alternative college that accepts the CLAT 2025 score for admission other than NLU. The SC and ST candidates will have wider options as they prefer to go to NLUs or other law colleges with 70 marks in CLAT 2025.

Hello,

In CLAT , the 9-digit admit card number is not the same as the roll number you have to write on the OMR sheet. The OMR sheet has only 7 blocks because the CLAT roll number is shorter.

You should check your admit card again and look for the roll number printed near your name and exam details. Fill only that roll number in the OMR sheet. Do not write the 9-digit admit card number.

If you still cannot find the roll number, you can ask the exam invigilator on the exam day.

Hope it helps !
