Hello!

CLAT scores around 41–45 marks are typically quite low for admission into top NLUs through the general category. Most NLUs cut off above 80–90+ marks for BA LLB admissions. If you're applying under a reserved category (e.g. SC, ST, OBC), there’s some chance at lower-ranked NLUs, but general category seats at NLUs are highly competitive.

However, many private law colleges accept CLAT scores and may provide good studies and reasonable placement opportunities. These colleges often have higher cutoffs and inclusive selection. If you are keen to pursue law, consider applying to these institutions as well. And if you're motivated, you could also aim to improve your CLAT score next year many students do exactly that for better prospects.

4. VIT School of Law
5. Amity Law School, Noida

Hi dear candidate,

Your rank of 4032 in CLAT exam with EWS appears to be insufficient for admission in IP University colleges as the category wise cut off for IPU colleges is lower than your rank at least for the top tier colleges like VIPS and MAIMS.

The majority of seats are reserved for students with Delhi domicile in IPU colleges and if you belong to outside Delhi then, it's slightly difficult.

However, some colleges like Trinity (TIIPS) in Dwarka accepted admissions for Law at higher rank of around 8,000 so you might also have a chance there.

Otherwise, you can find top Law colleges in Delhi NCR at our official website:

Hello Akanksha!

That’s a very relevant question, especially for students who want quality education without high costs. Some platforms, including this one , do offer limited free CLAT preparation material like:Sample question papers,study plans or exam pattern insights.

For preparation, make a timetable and study each section for at least 1 hour daily. Focus on current affairs too.

Thanks for asking and all the best!

Firstly, having an ST rank of 593 means you're in the top 600 among ST candidates, but there’s more to how CLAT admission works. The total number of seats for ST category across all NLUs is limited, often just around 300–400. And even though your category rank is 593, it’s possible that other candidates ahead of you filled up most of the seats in earlier rounds.

Also, your All India Rank (AIR) of 34,347 plays a role because some NLUs consider both AIR and category rank during seat allocation. Most ST category cutoffs in popular NLUs tend to fall around AIR 12,000–20,000, depending on how competitive that year is and how many applicants fill seats in the early rounds. So, if your AIR is outside that range, it's quite likely you were just beyond the last cutoff in round-wise seat distribution.

The best move now is to look out for mop-up or spot rounds, where unfilled or withdrawn seats are re-offered. Also, many private universities like UPES, Nirma, or Bennett accept CLAT scores and reserve seats for ST category students.

All the best!

Hello Aspirant,

The CLAT (Common Law Admission Test) exam consists of five subjects which are given below:-

1. English Language

2. Current Affairs, including General Knowledge

3.Legal Reasoning

4. Logical Reasoning

5. Quantitative Techniques (Basic Mathematics)

And

These subjects are tested in one single paper with 120 multiple-choice questions for UG CLAT (as per the latest pattern from 2024 onwards). Each question carries 1 mark, and there's a 0.25 negative mark for every incorrect answer.

With an All India SC category rank of 1561 in CLAT, you have a strong chance of getting admission into several National Law Universities through the counselling rounds. Based on past year trends, this rank can fetch you a seat in NLUs like NLIU Bhopal, HNLU Raipur, RGNUL Patiala, and possibly even higher-ranked ones like WBNUJS Kolkata or NLU Jodhpur depending on how cutoffs move in the later rounds.

SC category cutoffs for top NLUs tend to vary each year, but many of them have admitted students with SC ranks between 1500 and 3000, especially in rounds 2 and 3. Your chances increase further if you list a wide range of NLUs in your preference order during counselling. Also, make sure to complete all required counselling steps, document verification, and preference locking on time to avoid missing out.

With your rank, you're well-positioned to get a seat—just stay active in the admission process and keep checking updates from the CLAT consortium.

Dear student,

For Delhi University’s BA LLB program through CLAT, EWS category admissions last year (2024) typically closed around a rank of 1100 to 1200. This means if you scored around 90–95 marks in CLAT, you had a good chance of getting in. The exact cut-off can change slightly each year depending on competition and seat availability, but staying within the top 1200 is generally safe for EWS candidates.
