Following the release of the CLAT 2025 sample paper by the Consortium, there was much anticipation about the difficulty level of the actual exam. Against all expectations, the overall paper turned out to be easy. There were a few surprises, though. One notable deviation from previous years was a question on Analytical Reasoning. The passages in the exam were short and the questions were straightforward.

A good number of attempts would be 105+, and cutoffs are expected to be higher.

Here’s a section-wise analysis of the CLAT 2025 paper:

UPES Integrated LLB Admissions 2026

ICFAI-LAW School BA-LLB / BBA-LLB Admissions 2025

English Language: Easy

The CLAT 2025 English Language section featured contextual questions. There was a passage on "How to Improve Your Life." The questions were direct and did not require extensive interpretation, making it a scoring section for most aspirants.

Logical Reasoning: Moderate

Logical Reasoning featured a mix of Analytical Reasoning and Critical Reasoning questions. The Analytical Reasoning section featured a seating arrangement question, which was a noteworthy deviation from previous year's papers.

Legal Reasoning: Easy

Passages included topics like valid and invalid contracts, the right to privacy, and the 42nd Amendment. Many questions combined General Knowledge and Legal Comprehension, requiring students to apply both legal principles and factual knowledge.

Current Affairs/GK: Easy

The General Knowledge section touched upon pivotal topics like Article 370, Civil Disobedience, the Shakti Scheme, and the Olympics. While some questions allowed derivation from the passages, others required knowledge of current affairs and historical events.

Quantitative Techniques: Moderate

This section stood out for being particularly time-consuming. Questions focused on topics like dearness allowance, time, and percentage-based calculations. While the problems were solvable, managing time effectively was critical for scoring well in this section.

Conclusion

CLAT 2025 maintained a balanced approach, with sections offering both scoring opportunities and challenges. While concise passages provided relief, areas requiring extra knowledge and time-consuming calculations could have created hurdles for some aspirants. Accuracy will play a huge role, and minor mistakes might cost aspirants more compared to a difficult paper, as scores of aspirants would likely be much closer to each other.

BEST REGARDS


Hello,

While NLUs are costly, you can still pursue government-funded law education through state-funded universities and their affiliated colleges that accept CLAT scores, such as institutes like Banaras Hindu University and Aligarh Muslim University.

I hope it will clear your query!!

It is always better to take the CLAT exam right after Class 12 if your goal is to build a career in law, because CLAT UG is specifically designed for admission into integrated five-year law programs like BA LLB, BCom LLB, or BBA LLB. Appearing after Class 12 saves you time, as you complete both graduation and law together in a single course. On the other hand, if you first complete graduation and then plan for law, you will not be eligible for CLAT UG but instead for CLAT PG, which is meant for admission into LLM programs. This path takes longer, because you first spend three or four years on graduation and then add another three years in an LLB program if you choose not to go for an integrated course. So, if you are already sure about pursuing law as your career, writing CLAT right after Class 12 is the smarter and time-saving option, while writing it after graduation makes sense only if you are considering higher studies in law or a shift in career later.

For CLAT, the most important topics are from  Legal Reasoning, Current Affairs & GK, the Indian Constitution, English Language, Quantitative Techniques and Logical Reasoning. For a brief detail you can go through the following link: https://law.careers360.com/articles/clat-important-topics
