NLU Name | General | EWS | OBC | SC | ST | NRI |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
NLSIU Bengaluru | 100+ | 95+ | 90+ | 83+ | 78+ | - |
NALSAR Hyderabad | 100+ | 95+ | 90+ | 82+ | 78+ | - |

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 |

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
Thank You.
Hi dear candidate,
Both the colleges Maharaja Agrasen (MAIMS) or Gitarattan (GIBS) are affiliated to IP University and allows admission either by CLAT or IPU CET Law. Without either of these exams, your admission is NOT accepted there. You can try looking for management quota seats in these colleges if you have got good marks in 12th class.
