    With CLAT scores of 50 to 55, candidates have very few choices for NLU admission. With a percentage score of less than 50% in CLAT 2026, candidates from the ST category can make it to some of the tier 2 and tier 3 NLUs. The CLAT cut-off trends indicate that the CLAT score of 50 to 55 will not be enough to clear the NLU cut-off for other categories. Read on to find out the expected rank for CLAT 50 to 55 and the top NLU choices for the rank.

    Is CLAT Marks 50 to 55 a Good Score in CLAT 2026?

    50 to 55 marks is not a good score in CLAT 2026 for most candidates. Only ST candidates stand a chance for NLU admission into tier 2 and tier 3 universities. With a CLAT score of 50 to 55 marks, general candidates can gain admission only if there are any vacant seats left at any NLU. CLAT marks of 50 to 55 are even less than the CLAT cut-off for EWS and the CLAT cut-off for OBC categories.
