Dear Aspirant,

Maybe you don't know that from 2020 clat has been changed, pattern of clath as been changed and the number of questions reduced from 200 to 120 250. The duration of the exam is same according to the previous year that is 3 years.

Coming to the preparation part the exam has shifted from memory based reasoning base and inference base that is now you have to understand and comprehend all the reading passages and answer the question on the base of inference drawn from the passage.

Puzzles and question involving the logical thinking are introduced in the exam to reduce the memorizing part and increase the inference and logical part.

Hello,
