The Consortium is expected to notify the CLAT 2025 counselling schedule soon for admissions into 5-year LLB and LLM programmes of participating NLUs. The CLAT 2025 merit list will be prepared based on the revised result.

How Many Marks Will a Candidate Gain or Lose?

A candidate will gain a maximum of 4 marks and lose a maximum of 2.25 marks on account of the revised result. The HC has ordered revision in the answers to 4 questions. A change of 2-4 marks either way will result in a drastic shift in the candidate’s rank in the merit list.

The CLAT marks vs rank analysis shows that even a difference of 1-2 marks can cause a shift of 1000 ranks. Candidates therefore have to keep track of these changes and get a realistic assessment of their NLU chances as per their rank.

BEST REGARDS


Hello,

While NLUs are costly, you can still pursue government-funded law education through state-funded universities and their affiliated colleges that accept CLAT scores, such as institutes like Banaras Hindu University and Aligarh Muslim University.

I hope it will clear your query!!

It is always better to take the CLAT exam right after Class 12 if your goal is to build a career in law, because CLAT UG is specifically designed for admission into integrated five-year law programs like BA LLB, BCom LLB, or BBA LLB. Appearing after Class 12 saves you time, as you complete both graduation and law together in a single course. On the other hand, if you first complete graduation and then plan for law, you will not be eligible for CLAT UG but instead for CLAT PG, which is meant for admission into LLM programs. This path takes longer, because you first spend three or four years on graduation and then add another three years in an LLB program if you choose not to go for an integrated course. So, if you are already sure about pursuing law as your career, writing CLAT right after Class 12 is the smarter and time-saving option, while writing it after graduation makes sense only if you are considering higher studies in law or a shift in career later.

For CLAT, the most important topics are from  Legal Reasoning, Current Affairs & GK, the Indian Constitution, English Language, Quantitative Techniques and Logical Reasoning. For a brief detail you can go through the following link: https://law.careers360.com/articles/clat-important-topics
