There is growing uncertainty over the CLAT 2025 result as the Consortium of National Law Universities has approached the Delhi HC. While the final court order and its impact on the CLAT result is pending, candidates may want to know what is a good score in CLAT 2025. The estimates around the CLAT 2025 cut-off are based on past cut-off trends. Read on to find out the category-wise good score in CLAT 2025 for top NLUs, estimated cut-off ranks, and more.
A good score in CLAT 2025 is highest for the general category and progressively reduces for other categories such as EWS, OBC, SC, and ST
A good score required in CLAT 2025 for any NLU is often the lowest for the ST category
Premier NLUs such as NLSIU Bengaluru and NALSAR Hyderabad require the highest CLAT 2025 scores for admission across various categories.
For NLUs that offer domicile reservation under the CLAT reservation criteria, the good score in CLAT 2025 within a particular category may be less for candidates coming under domicile reservation than candidates coming under the All India category.
A good score required in CLAT 2025 will depend on factors such as the difficulty level of the exam, the candidate’s NLU preferences, the CLAT seat matrix, and the reservation policy
The tables below describe the good score in CLAT 2025 required for top NLUs and the expected NLU cut-off ranks. The estimates are based on trends seen last year.

Hey there,
If you mean CLAT eligibility for admission to 5-year LLB courses, there is no fixed CLAT score/rank that guarantees eligibility. You must first meet the basic Class 12 eligibility criteria, and admission is based on your CLAT rank, category, preferences, and counselling cut-offs.
For NLUs, a better rank
