Questions related to AILET

On Question asked by student community

Have a question related to AILET ?
I have got only 43 marks in my clat 2026. I am totally demotivated and traumatised. i have one more chance(ailet) to correct my mistake but i confused how to prepare for ailet and what i have to study specially in Static Gk, current affairs, which date name and place. Plzzz guide me

Hello aspirant,

Getting 43 in CLAT can feel disappointing, but it doesn't define your ability. You still have AILET, and many students improve sharply in their second attempt. For AILET, focus more on English, logical reasoning and GK. In static GK, study important books, monuments, national parks, constitutional facts and major awards. For current affairs, revise the last 6-8 months covering national events, government schemes, appointments, sports and major international news. Make short notes and revise daily. With a clear plan and claim mind, you can perform much better in AILET.

My clat rank is 21k, and my sc category rank is around 1k. For which nlu should I apply for in vacancy round? As well as I wanted to know about the cutoff for SC candidate in AILET. My AIR is 5XXX, and my AIR in SC category is 17X

hey, Having a CLAT rank of 21,000 and an SC category rank of approximately 1,000, you may get a good chance by applying to NLUs in which SC category seats remain unfilled. At this rank extend, there are routinely open positions at state NLUs or more current NLUs with reserved seats SC candidates. Focus on appying to NLUs such as NLU Jodhpur, NLU Odisha or NLU Tamil Nadu, which occasionally have vacancies in saved categories. As well, monitor the CLAT guiding entry in terms of opening overhauls and participate in spot rounds properly.
