Hi

CLAT question paper contains 150 number of questions. Reduction in class question paper is has been done from 200 questions to 150 questions because students have to complete 200 questions in 120 minutes and this was a mental stress which was given to students. Also the entrance test CLAT-IG will be of 12th standard. Numerical and mathematical calculation will be of 10th standard. Minimum cutoff marks 40% for the objective paper. After clearing cut off of objective paper your subjective paper will be checked.
