In the English section your proficiency is tested, that is basic grammar to high level grammar, para jumbles and comprehensions. In quants your ability to solve a problem, they are simple but very tricky topics like TSD, percentages-averages etc, for reasoning too the same applies, legal aptitude is nothing but your interest in legal research.

For cracking the quantitative aptitude section of clat you basically need to do all the mathematics topics you have studied till class 10th. It is very basic tricks play a major role there.
