Solving the sample paper and mock tests will help the candidates know their weaknesses, thus giving them a chance to prepare well. The AILET mock tests will also make the candidates learn time management skills which is necessary for completing the test within 90 minutes.

General Knowledge and Current Affairs
Candidates may divide this section in two parts - static GK and current affairs. While static GK can be tackled by reading and memorizing the books, the current affairs would require regular reading of newspapers. Candidates should read the English newspapers such as The Hindu or The Indian Express. The articles and editorials along with the news around legal developments are of utmost importance.

However, it is pertinent for candidates to balance their school study and AILET preparation.

You can go for DU llb or bhu llb entrance examination, as they offer 3 year llb.

Hello,
I presume it's CLAT that you're enquiring about, first of all CLAT is conducted for admission of integrated law programs at undergraduate level, it's not for three year LLB course, and even for AILET which is conducted by National Law University, it offers only integrated law program at undergraduate level, you can check out the details at the official website at https://nludelhi.ac.in/home.aspx , admission to LLB varies as per the norms of the concerned university, for some it's based on the merit of the qualifying examination, to provide you an example The Tamilnadu Dr BR Ambedkar University offers LLB without any entrance exam, some of the top entrance exams for LLB are DU LLB by Delhi University, LAT by Allahabad University, BHU UET by Banaras Hindu University,LSAT scores are accepted by many universities, there are also state level law entrance exams for three years LLB such as TS LAWCET in Telangana, AP LAWCET in Andhra Pradesh, KLEE in Kerala, MHT CET LAW in Maharastra etc, the eligibility criteria is passed graduation in any stream from a recognized university with 45-50% aggregate(this again varies in case of DU, BHU they need 50% marks at graduation), generally final year candidates too are eligible to apply provided they can show the proof of their qualifying examination during the time of admission, so kindly check out the details for the university for which you're interested to apply for the same.
