Check out the video below where students express their views about the CLAT 2025 exam
It is too early to predict the CLAT 2025 cutoff but a review of the last year's cut-off will provide an idea of the expected CLAT cut-off this year. The cut-off for CLAT 2025 will be influenced by the following factors given below.
As per the previous exam analysis, the good score in CLAT 2025 is expected to be 100+ for general category in top NLUs such as NLSIU Bengaluru and NALSAR Hyderabad. It is expected to be 90+ for tier 1 NLUs.
| NLU Name | General | EWS | OBC | SC | ST | NRI | 
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NLSIU Bengaluru | 100+ | 95+ | 90+ | 83+ | 78+ | - | 
| NALSAR Hyderabad | 100+ | 95+ | 90+ | 82+ | 78+ | - | 
| WBNUJS Kolkata | 98+ | - | 56+* | 80+ | 74+ | 89+ | 
| NLU Jodhpur | 95+ | - | 88+ | 79+ | 74+ | 88+ | 
| GNLU Gandhinagar | 95+ | 90+ | 87+ | 77+ | 70+ | 84+ | 
| MNLU Mumbai | 93+ | 81+ | 77+* | 71+* | 41+* | 43+ | 
| RMLNLU Lucknow | 91+ | 85+ | 82+* | 53+* | 41+* | 72+ |

The CLAT exam analysis 2025 will be updated in this section. The analysis will include a section-wise analysis of the difficulty level and type of questions asked in the exam. It will also include an estimate of the good score in CLAT 2025. Additionally, the analysis of CLAT 2025 will cover student reactions to the CLAT 2025 question paper on the exam day.
Given below is the CLAT exam analysis for previous years which can help candidates know what to expect in the exam. It is to be noted that the CLAT exam pattern was revised last year. The consortium had reduced the number of questions in CLAT UG from 150 to 120 without making any changes to the time available to attempt the questions. An easier question paper is likely to increase the CLAT cut-off 2025, as it did last year.
CLAT 2024 had an updated exam pattern with 120 questions and the revised paper pattern had cast clouds of uncertainty however, against everyone’s expectations CLAT 2024 paper was easy to moderate. 105+ is a good number of attempts and 90+ is a good score for Top 3 National Law Schools.
| Section | Difficulty level | Commentary | 
|---|---|---|
| English | Easy | The section was easy. The questions were literature-based and to the point and could be solved by elimination. There were no vocab questions | 
| General knowledge | Easy | The section was easy and maximum questions were passage-based. A few Why questions and questions on world affairs and political events like G 20, Gaza strip, ISRO, and Jallianwala Bagh | 
| Quantitative aptitude | Easy to moderate | The section was easy to moderate and had basic case lets. Questions based on the population survey were relatively lengthier. There were questions about Ratio & proportion | 
| Legal reasoning | Easy | The section was easy with short passages on the Juvenile Justice Act, Void and voidable Marriage, Personal data protection bill etc. One question was case-based and the section mostly had questions on current legal knowledge | 
| Logical reasoning | Easy to moderate | The section was easy to moderate with a little confusing passage on “production efficiency”. The length of the passages was surprisingly short with few questions on inference, strength, and weakness in this section. | 
| Overall | Easy-moderate |

On Question asked by student community
Hello,
If you are from Delhi and appearing for CLAT, then you come under the General (All India) category, as CLAT reservation is based on the domicile of NLUs, and Delhi does not have a National Law University under CLAT (NLU Delhi conducts AILET separately).So, you can apply for CLAT through All India Quota, and if you don’t get a seat in NLUs. You can apply through CLAT, AILET, or private law colleges like Amity, Symbiosis, or IPU for admission.
Keep both CLAT and AILET options open to maximize your chances.
Hope you understand.
 
Hello,
No, you are not elligible to appear for the CLAT exam while in Class 11, as the elligiblity criteria require you to be in or have completed Class 12 . However, you can start preparing for the exam now.

Hello,
Yes, if a student is from Telangana, they can apply for a reserved seat in CLAT only if they belong to a reserved category such as SC, ST, OBC, EWS, or PwD, as per the rules of CLAT and the participating National Law Universities (NLUs).
However, please note:
CLAT does not have a separate “Telangana state quota.”
Reservation is given based on category , not on the state, except in some NLUs that offer domicile (state) reservation for their own state students.
So, if you are from Telangana, you can:
Apply under your category reservation (like SC/ST/OBC/EWS) .
And you may get Telangana domicile reservation only in those NLUs that are located in Telangana (for example, NALSAR University of Law, Hyderabad ).
Hope it helps !
Hi Dear Candidate!!
For VITEEE (VIT Engineering Admission), a safe zone generally means scoring around 110–120 out of 125 or securing a rank under 25,000 for most B.Tech branches at VIT Vellore. Other campuses like Chennai, Bhopal, or Amaravati may have slightly lower cutoffs, around ranks 25,000–40,000, depending on the branch. Highly competitive branches like Computer Science or Electronics usually require higher scores, while less competitive branches may have slightly lower requirements.
For CLAT (National Law University Admission), a safe score for top NLUs such as NLU Delhi, Bangalore, or Hyderabad is around 140–145 out of 150 for General category students. Mid-tier NLUs usually require scores in the 120–135 range. Keep in mind that category-wise variations and yearly fluctuations in applicants can slightly change the cutoffs, so aiming higher than these predicted scores is always recommended to ensure a seat.
