The Central Board of Secondary Education has announced the CBSE Class 12 results 2025. In the CBSE results class 12, a total of 88.39% students passed the exams. Given the increasing popularity of law courses, the number of CBSE students opting for the CLAT exam have also increased. Careers360 filed a RTI, which revealed that 58% students in the CLAT counselling invite list come from CBSE schools. The data also indicated that CBSE schools have more than six times more students in CLAT compared to other board school students. Read on as we dig deeper into why CBSE school students have high success rate in CLAT exams, year-wise statistics and more.
A RTI filed by Careers360 revealed that a total of 12,827 students out of total 22,217 students invited for CLAT 2024 counselling last year hailed from CBSE schools. Comparatively, a total of 9390 students from all other school boards in India were invited for CLAT counselling. The below given table breaks down the number of students invited for CLAT counselling from different school boards:
Particulars | No. of students qualified for counselling | Percentage |
Candidates from CBSE board | 12827 | 58% |
Candidates from state and other boards | 9390 | 42% |
Total | 22217 | 100% |
On a comparative note, students from CBSE board have seen more success in the CLAT exam. It must be noted that only the top performing candidates in the CLAT exam are called for counselling. There is a stark difference between the success ratios of CBSE students and other board students. A total of 28,135 CBSE students appeared for the CLAT 2025 exam, out of which a total of 12,827 students were called for CLAT counselling. The below-given table summarizes the success ratio difference between CBSE and other board students:
Board | Number of schools | No. of candidates qualified | Success rate |
CBSE | 28135 | 12827 | 46% |
Other board | 121865 | 9390 | 8% |
Usually the CLAT 2025 results are declared before the CBSE class 12 results as the exam process is over before even starting of the CBSE exam. However, this time around due to the long court trials on the CLAT 2025 results and the subsequent SC jugment to revise CLAT results, the admission process has been delayed by more than four five months. It is expected that the CLAT 2025 revised results will be declared within this week and the consortium will begin CLAT 2025 counselling as soon as the scorecards are out.
