CLAT UG 2025 : Preparation Guide (Exam Pattern, Syllabus, Section-wise Preparation Tips) - Free PDF

Hello Abhinav,

Since you're preparing for CLAT UG while studying PCB in 12th , you’ll need a smart strategy to manage both. CLAT primarily tests English, Logical Reasoning, General Knowledge, Legal Aptitude, and Quantitative Techniques . Here's how you can balance both:

1. Time Management

• Study 12th subjects as per school schedule and dedicate 2-3 hours daily for CLAT.
  
  
• Utilize weekends for CLAT mock tests and revision.
  
  2. CLAT Preparation Plan

• English & Logical Reasoning: Read newspapers (The Hindu, Indian Express), solve puzzles, and practice comprehension daily.
  
  
• General Knowledge & Current Affairs: Follow The Hindu, PIB, and monthly current affairs magazines.
  
  
• Legal Aptitude: Read basic legal principles, past CLAT papers, and case laws.
  
  
• Maths (Basic Quant) : Solve 10-15 questions daily from Class 10-level maths.
  
  3. Mock Tests & Practice

• Start practicing mock tests from July-August.
• Analyze mistakes and improve weak areas.
  
  4. Maintain Consistency

• Prioritize board exams from Dec-Feb, but don’t neglect CLAT.
• After boards, fully focus on CLAT till December.

With discipline and regular practice, you can crack CLAT while managing PCB boards!

The IPU CLAT cut-off 2025 has not been officially announced yet. However, Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU) will publish the cut-off list on its official website after the declaration of the CLAT 2025 results.

For admission to law programs at GGSIPU, the university considers CLAT scores. The cut-off list will vary depending on the program and category. You can check the expected cut-off ranks for different NLUs on the official CLAT website.

To stay updated on the IPU CLAT cut-off 2025, I recommend regularly checking the official GGSIPU website.

Hello there,

With a CLAT 2025 rank of 30,491, getting a top NLUs is unlikely, but you may get admission in private law colleges or institutes affiliated with IP University (GGSIPU) if they accept CLAT scores.

Since you have already registered for IPU, keep an eye on counseling. As a backup, appearing for CUET is a good option if you want to pursue BA and later do LLB. For BA, choose subjects like Political Science, History, or Public Administration, which align well with LLB.

If law is your final goal, also check private law colleges like UPES, Jindal, Amity, or Christ University as additional options.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.

Hello there,

No, you cannot take CLAT now for admission in the current year. CLAT (Common Law Admission Test) is conducted once a year , and admissions are based on that year's exam results.

Options for You:

1. If you missed CLAT 2024 , you can apply for CLAT 2025 (exam in December 2024) for admission in 2025.
   
   
2. Some private law colleges and universities offer direct admission or conduct their own entrance exams (like LSAT India, SLAT, etc.).
   
   
3. State-level law entrance exams may still be open (e.g., MH CET Law, AP LAWCET, TS LAWCET).
