The earlier judgment of a single bench is upheld again, some students will gain up to 2 marks, while some might also lose 1-2 marks depending on their answers to relevant questions.

    Analysing the Impact on CLAT Rank Due to Revised Score

    As shown in the table above, due to the revised CLAT answer key, the final CLAT 2025 score can increase by up to a maximum of 1.5 marks and decrease by a maximum of 2.25 marks. The CLAT marks vs rank analysis shows that a difference of 1-2 marks can make a difference of around 1000 ranks at the lower spectrum of rank list, and a difference of 50-100 ranks at the top end. The maximum shift in the CLAT rank list due to the revised CLAT 2025 result will be +1000 to -10000 if the candidate's score ranges below 90. For scores above 90, the shift is comparatively lesser at -100 to +100.
