Hello aspirant,

No, you are not permitted to take the CLAT exam in your eleventh grade year.  Students who have finished or are taking their 12th grade or equivalent exam are eligible to take the Common Law Admission Test, or CLAT.  To build a solid basis for when you are qualified to apply in the 12th grade, you might begin preparing in the 11th grade.

Thank you

Hello,

No, you can't take the CLAT exam in Class 11 because the eligibility criteria require you to be in Class 12 or have already completed Class 12. However, you can start preparing for the exam during your 11th grade, which can be a strategic advantage for getting familiar with the syllabus and improving your performance for the actual exam when you are eligible to appear in Class 12.

I hope it will clear your query!!

Hello,

No, you are not elligible to appear for the CLAT exam while in Class 11, as the elligiblity criteria require you to be in or have completed Class 12 . However, you can start preparing for the exam now.
