After the Supreme Court judgement issued on May 7, 2025 for petitions in CLAT UG, a candidate's score is likely to change significantly. This change in score will lead to a significant shift in the candidate’s rank in the CLAT 2025 merit list. As per the SC judgement, 4 answers in the CLAT 2025 final answer key have been revised. Additionally, the Delhi HC had also revised the answer to one question which was accepted by the Consortium of NLUs. The Consortium of NLUs will publish the CLAT 2025 revised result based on the judgement. Read on to find out how the revised judgement is likely to cause a shift in CLAT ranks 5000 to 10000.
A CLAT rank between 5000 to 10000 places the candidates between 10 to 20 percentile. A change in the candidates rank due to the revised result will impact the candidates admission chances in the CLAT counselling process..Through the Common Law Admission Test, candidates can secure admission into 5-year LLB programmes of participating NLUs.
