The National Law University in Delhi gave the All-India Law Entrance Test or AILET 2023 on December 11, 2022.There was a major change in the pattern, which came as a shock to students and initially they were not able to adjust with this change. Somehow after couple of minutes students were able to understand the essence of the pattern and most of them attempted good number of questions. The two sections i.e., English Language & Logical reasoning were merged together. Instead of giving 50 questions based on English language & 70 questions based on Logical Reasoning in separate section, all 120 questions were given in same part as Section - A & Section B of Part -1. Section A of any passage had 5 questions based on Reading Comprehension & Section B had 7 logical reasoning question based on the same passage.So, there were 10 passages with 12 questions each.This made the paper very challenging However students realized that they have to read the same passage to attempt comprehension-based questions as well as logical reasoning-based questions. The only relief was that GK came in separate section as Part -2 with 30 questions as announced by AILET authorities.The test was given in 24 cities across the whole country. Since the AILET 2023 was given in a different way than it had been, candidates should have been ready for some changes from the tests they had taken in the past. Through AILET 2023, the school offers 110 seats for students who want to take the BA LLB programme and 70 seats for students who want to take the LLM programme.
Each year, around 13,000 individuals take the AILET for BA LLB. Because there are just a few seats available, it is one of India's most competitive law school admission tests. As a result, candidates with a high rank will have a better chance of admission to NLU Delhi.
