    Is 3500 to 4000 a Good Rank in CLAT?

    A rank of 3500 to 4000 is a good rank in CLAT for SC, ST, and OBC candidates as they can secure NLU admission at Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Kolkata, and Jodhpur. However, the CLAT general cut-off is high, and such candidates will not be able to secure NLU admission with CLAT ranks 3500 to 4000.
