Dear Aspirant
LLB, aslo known as Bachelor of Legislative Law, is an undergraduate law programme of 3 years duration that can be pursued after graduation. One can take admission to LLB law degree course after graduation. Admission to LLB courses can be done through two channels:
1) based on scores of entrance exams like PU LLB , DU LLB , and MH CET Law , and
2) based on scores of qualifying exams.
The candidate can choose an entrance exam based on the college they want to get admission to; for example for admission to Delhi University , one has to qualify DU LLB 2020 entrance exam.
Direct admission based on qualifying exam marks is also a common admission route, with KSLU admission being a good example.

The merit list, in this case, is prepared considering marks of qualifying (graduate) exam.
