There are some very basic differences probably the biggest and the most obvious difference is that unlike the CLAT the LSAT India does not have a general knowledge or current affairs section and it does not have quantitative techniques which is sort of more mathematical so unlike the CLAT the LSAT is not a test where you can gain a tremendous advantage by cramming a lot of facts and learning a lot of things, it's much more focused on skills in particular, critical thinking skills. So that's the biggest difference.

A brief rundown of LSAT India is:

In LSAT India we have one section of reading comprehension with about 25 questions and then two sections totaling about 40 questions of logical reasoning and this is just a test of basic critical thinking skills whether you can identify arguments, conclusions, the assumptions are required for an argument to be successful and all these questions are based on short passages which are of on ordinary english or everyday language.

The fourth section is of analytical reasoning and this is  a test of deductive reasoning skills so you have to deduce what could be the case or what must be the case depending on certain facts and assumptions that are put forward so there's really a very emphasis on critical thinking skills., not facts, current affairs, etc.

Dear Agrim,

Thank you for you query. If you want to study in Jindal Global Law School, you need to clear the Law School Admission Test. According to the admission criteria for the Jindal Global Law School you need to first register to write the Law School Admission Test and then you need to submit the admission details to the Jindal Global Law School website when you apply for the admission.

So in conclusion, you need to register separately for both LSAT and other private colleges
