Securing a rank of approximately 4,000 in the CLAT PG 2025 examination may limit your chances of admission into the top National Law Universities (NLUs) for the LLM program. Historically, higher-ranked NLUs have had more stringent cut-off ranks, often requiring candidates to secure ranks well within the top 1,000 to 2,000.For instance, a CLAT PG score of 71+ marks typically corresponds to a rank of 100 or higher, while 35+ marks correspond to a rank of 4,000 or higher.

Some NLUs may have higher cut-off ranks for certain reserved categories or may offer seats to candidates with ranks around 4,000, especially in categories like OBC or EWS.
