CLAT, or Common Law Admission Test (CLAT), is the main exam for admission to 22 National Law Universities(NLUs). These universities conduct the exam rotationally. However, since 2019, the Consortium of NLUs has organised the exam. The duty of conducting the exam is distributed and rotated among NLUs according to seniority in the establishment. CLAT 2024 is set totake place on December 2023.
Important Note: The CLAT 2023-2024 will take place in December 2023 for admissions to the 5-year integrated B.A., LL.B (Hons.), and LL.M. courses at one of the 22 participating NLUs.
Why CLAT?
Law and legal services are among the most honourable and revered professions. For instance, the legal representatives' requirements in society are most sought after. The first and foremost step to getting into the shoes of legal personnel is to get admission to law programmes. For seeking admission to the best law colleges in India for CLAT, approximately 70,000 students appeared for CLAT 2023, a number that keeps on increasing every year.
Law aspirants look forward to getting into the top ranks and admissions to India's best law institutions through CLAT 2023-2024. Candidates work hard to get admission to the top National Law Universities such as National Law School of India University (NLSIU), Bengaluru, NALSAR University of Law (NALSAR), Hyderabad, National Law Institute University (NLIU), Bhopal and many others.
CLAT - Gateway to Top Law Universities
Avenues to a prosperous and challenging career are ascertained for the law graduates of National Law Universities. Since CLAT is the gateway to NLUs, except NLU Delhi, which conducts AILET, acquiring legal education is a prudent choice for a bright career.
Law firms handpick and hire fresh and knowledgeable law graduates from NLUs and best law colleges at a whooping package ranging from Rs. 8 lakh to Rs. 15 lakh per annum.
Besides working for famous law firms, law pass-outs can also work with established advocates to get paid between Rs. 3 lakh to Rs. 5 lakh. The objective of such new lawyers working under the established ones is to learn the legal profession's stratagems and tactics.
Apart from private practice and joining a legal firm, new lawyers from NLUs and SLSs can venture into the legal arenas such as Environmental Law, Intellectual Property Rights, Arbitration, Taxation and Competition Law. Now candidates are no longer restricting themselves to traditional areas of civil or criminal sides.
Teaching as a lecturer or a professor in law colleges is another profession for which a law graduate can go. The teaching profession does not demand any prior experience as legal personnel. There is respect, socialisation, enthusiasm, and contented earning. Therefore, by choosing law education from the colleges considering CLAT as their admission criterion, you earn honourable degrees and enter a respectable, lucrative, and challenging profession full of excitement and enthusiasm at the same time.

CLAT Preparation Tips
CLAT is moderate in difficulty level, and most of its questions are lengthy and time-consuming. So, here we are listing down the tried and tested general preparation tips that will help you score high in the exam.
  • Prepare a timetable as per your schedule. If you can follow a monthly or weekly schedule, plan it accordingly. Keep the syllabus always handy.
  • Make sure that you cover all the topics and revise them at frequent intervals.
  • Solve mock tests and sample papers to be thorough with the concepts. It will also help you analyse your performance, where you will be able to recognise weak areas and stronger ones.
  • Prefer not to do the guesswork while attempting the questions in the exam, as there is a negative marking of 0.25 marks.
Step-by-step CLAT Preparation Plan
  1. Marking Scheme
Every candidate needs to know the marking scheme. Candidates should also determine which section is high-scoring and can help them crack CLAT.
  1. Conceptual Understanding
For an exam like CLAT, you have to have a strong conceptual understanding. You must brush up on your basics and keep revising important topics. It will help in keeping hold of concepts.
  1. Practice and Analyse
Once all the concepts are clear, the candidates need to practise mocks and sample papers to be aware of the actual paper's question types and difficulty level. Solving these will surely strengthen your concepts, allowing you to focus on weaker areas.
CLAT 2023-2024 Section-wise Preparation Tips
CLAT preparation requires section-wise focus and smart work in terms of different areas and topics. So, it is critical to choose the right resources and adopt the correct approach for all areas of CLAT. Here, we have explained the way to tackle various sections:
Mathematics
This section requires extensive practice. The more you practise, the more proficient you will become! To improve, you must continue to practise. Additionally, it's good to review areas where you fall short. To maximise your accuracy while staying within the exam's time limit, you can employ the following techniques.
General Knowledge and Current Affairs
You must be aware of the issues in this section. Everyone should read and watch the news as a daily ritual, both in print and on television. Working knowledge of history, geography, and science will be extremely beneficial. The Hindu, for example, is an excellent source of free news.
Legal Reasoning
To succeed in CLAT 2023-2024, you must concentrate on static and current legal issues, landmark decisions, and significant cases from the previous academic year. As a result, the passages can be digested more quickly. Ascertain that you are aware of everything that occurred during the summer and winter legislative sessions and any new issues that have arisen. There may be questions if there is insufficient time to read and comprehend the passage. When confronted with a situation like this, preparation is critical. Acquaint yourself with the legal profession's lingo by studying legal jargon and foreign words, phrases, and maxims. When in doubt about the meaning of a word, look it up online and read it several times to ensure you understand it.
English
This section requires extensive reading. To increase your response speed and, thus, your test scores, you should read the newspaper and practise comprehension passages. Examine the previous year's exam papers. Conduct online practice tests and compare your results to those obtained on the actual exam.
