Based on our AILET analysis 2024, once again history repeated itself as there was a change in the pattern, as was seen in the previous year.

This year Logical Reasoning & Legal Aptitude were clubbed in the same section. The paper was lengthy & difficult. The only respite was that the allotted time for the entire paper was increased from 90 minutes to 120 minutes. The test was conducted in 24 cities across the country. Based on our AILET 2024 exam analysis, we found that many students had anticipated the change in the pattern and had prepared keeping in mind the previous year's trends.

Each year, around 13000 - 14,000 individuals take the AILET exam for BA LLB. Because there are very 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.
