Common Law Admission Test
Hello Abhishek,
The Common Law Entrance Test (CLAT) and the All India Law Entrance Test (AILET) are both entrance examinations for undergraduate law courses in India. AILET is considered tougher than CLAT. The basic difference on the basis of Institutes is that CLAT has 19 participating Universities but AILET offers admission only to the National Law University in Delhi.
CLAT syllabus has been changed and the official syllabus will be released along with the official notification in the month of December. To give you a gist of the changed syllabus,
The no.of questions asked will be reduced from 200 to 120/125 but the time duration will be the same
Hello Swaraj,

Hello Yuvraj,
Common Law Admission Test is a centralised test for admission to 21 National Law Universities in India. Any test's difficulty depends on whether you prepare well for that exam or not. If you prepare up to the mark, the exam is not at all tough. However several bodies determine the overall dificulty of the exam by analysing the performance of the participating candidates.
Coming to 2018 paper analysis, https://law.careers360.com/articles/clat-analysis
Refer to the above link for analysis of 2018 paper, as per the link the paper was easy and the cut-off was also low. Coming to 2019 paper, The paper was largely on expected lines. The LOD made it very similar to CLAT 2016, thus indicating that the cut-off for the top 3 NLUs is likely to be around the 155-157 mark.
Now coming to the 2020 paper, the exam is expected to be easy and follow the pattern of 2019. However, the predictions may vary.
Overall, the exam is easy when compared to entrance exams of other streams.
Hope this helps
Regards.

You haven't mentioned whether you belong to Rajasthan or Haryana. Neverthless, in both these States, Jat belongs to OBC. Now if you fall under OBC Non creamy layer, you will have to select OBC-NCL as your Category. But if your annual household income is more than the Non creamy layer slab, then you have to select General Category as your Category. If you fall under OBC-NCL, you will be eligible for OBC reservation of 27%.
Hello,
Having a case whether civil or criminal doesn't imply anything about character till the time the guilt or crime is proved. However, if asked during application you may need to furnish the details of any pending cases. Our justice system is based on the principle, 'not guilty until proven' unless it is matter of public safety or terrorism so you need not worry.
Hope it helps
