The CLAT 2025 results are most likely to be revised. Currently, the Delhi HC reserved a verdict on the CLAT 2025 UG cases. The CLAT 2025 UG counselling is expected to begin shortly. In case the Delhi HC orders for revision of results, there will be huge fluctuations in the ranks of the candidates. Even a change of one or two marks will lead to significant shift in the ranks of the candidate. In this article we will discuss what impact will a revision of CLAT result bring for candidates with CLAT rank 5000. Read on for a detailed analysis on what difference in ranks a mark revision of one to two marks brings.
The Delhi HC is yet to deliver a verdict on the consolidated pleas related to CLAT UG cases. However, a two-judge bench had earlier ruled that answers for two questions should be revised. The question number and details of the revisions has been given in the tables below:
Candidate’sAnswer | Marks Awarded for Revision | Impact on Negative Marks Due to Revision | Impact on Final CLAT 2025 Score |
If your answer is C | +1 mark | +0.25 marks | +1.25 marks |
If your answer is D | -1 mark | -0.25 marks | -1.25 marks |
If your answer is A or B | Nil | Nil | Nil |
Candidate’s Answer | Marks Awarded for Revision | Impact on Negative Marks Due to Revision | Impact on Final CLAT 2025 Score |
If your answer is D | -1 mark | 0 | -1 mark |
Any other option | 0 | +0.25 mark | +0.25 marks |
Assuming that only two questions will be revised there can be many scenarios where the final scores of candidates will be impacted. A change in the final score will also lead to significant changes in the candidate’s ranks. Going by permutations and combinations, there are six total outcomes of the revision in results. The same has been denoted in the table below:
Case Scenario | Q. No 14 | Q. 100 | Final Score |
Answer C for Q. 14 and Answer D for Q. no 100 | +1.25 marks | -1 mark | +0.25 marks |
Answer C for Q. 14 and Any other option other than D for Q. 100 | +1.25 marks | +0.25 marks | +1.5 marks |
Answer D for Q. 14 and Answer D for Q. no 100 | -1.25 marks | -1 mark | -2.25 marks |
Answer D for Q. 14 and Any other option other than D for Q. 100 | -1.25 marks | +0.25 marks | -1 mark |
Answer A or B for Q. 14 and Answer D for Q. no 100 | Nil | -1 mark | -1 mark |
Answer A or B for Q. 14 and Any other option other than D for Q. 100 | Nil | +0.25 marks | +0.25 marks |
