Amity University-Noida Law Admissions 2026
Among top 100 Universities Globally in the Times Higher Education (THE) Interdisciplinary Science Rankings 2026
The CLAT 2025 counselling has been postponed due to a two-bench order directing the Consortium of NLUs to revise the CLAT results. Initially, the court ordered revision of answer key for two questions. However, currently the Delhi HC is hearing a consolidated list of cases against CLAT 2025 result. As the CLAT 2025 result hearing proceeds, students are still wondering what NLUs they might get in a score of 70-80 marks in CLAT exam. In this article, we dive deep into previous years CLAT cutoff and understand what are the available NLUs in the CLAT 2025 scores ranging between 70-80 marks.
A score of 70-80 cannot be termed as a really good score in CLAT 2025 exam. However, this does not mean that candidates do not have any chances of admissions in this score. Candidates from general category have limited chances of admissions in NLUs with this score. Candidates belonging to the OBC, SC and ST categories have slightly higher chances of admission in this score. It also depends a lot what preferences candidates have entered at the time of CLAT 2025 registration. Also, state domicile plays an important role in a candidate's admission in their home state NLU.
One important thing candidates must understand is that during the CLAT 2025 counselling, they will be given admission on the basis of their ranks not scores. Candidates must first understand what rank their marks will translate into. The rank of the candidate is also given on their CLAT 2025 scorecard. The table below denotes the CLAT 2025 marks vs rank analysis.
