Hi Priyanka!


As you must be knowing that the CLAT exam this year has been a cakewalk for most students and hence the cutoffs are expected to be on the higher side. The General category cutoff would most probably be 110+. The cutoff for OBC candidates would come down only by 5-10 marks at most. So don't be disappointed but there is absolutely no chance for you to get any NLU this year. Nonetheless, you can go for private law colleges, some of which are really good or else you can sit for CLAT again.


All the best. Hope it helps.

Hello dear aspirant!!!

Cut off of clat changes every year on the basis of the difficulty level of the questions in the paper.

And the obc qouta is applicable in state nlus so it depends if your state nlu provides OBC qouta.

Still on the basis of previous years cut-off your marks are low to get any nlu inspite of OBC qouta.

All the best!
