A good score in CLAT 2025 varies between 85 to 100+ marks across various categories. A rank of 1000 to 1200 in CLAT converts into around 90+ marks which is a good score to clear the CLAT SC cut-off and CLAT ST cut-off for premier NLUs. It can be said that CLAT rank of 1000 to 1200 is a good rank for SC/ST candidates. However, general candidates with CLAT rank 1000 to 1200 may have to look at tier 2 and 3 NLUs and other colleges that accept CLAT scores. They can also obtain seat in premier NLUs such as NUJS Kolkata for the BSc LLB programme with a rank of over 1000 in CLAT.
The tables given below provide the list of NLUs for CLAT rank 1000 to 1200 for various categories. The data in the table provides the opening and closing NLU cut-off for various categories as of last year.
