Hello,

You haven't mentioned whether your query us regarding UG or PG course. As per the information available in your profile we consider that you are seeking admission in to UG course. The cut off in 2019 in round 3 for general category was as follows

  • NLU, Guwahati:1471

Looking at the cut off it is very difficult to get seat in these NLUs considering your rank. However, cut off is subjected to change depending on number of candidates appeared, difficulty of the exam and number of seats available for admission etc.

To know the possible colleges in which you may get seat you can use our CLAT college predictor

I have sociology(hons) in miranda house (1st year). i also gave clat this year, got a seat in nlu shimla in the 1st round. will opt for revise option but what would be better? continuing in miranda house or leaving it for nlu?

Hello, i can sense your confusion and worry as you obviously don't want want to make a rushed decision and regret it later. No one else but only you can take this decision for yourself. You should make a career plan for  yourself and decide. Evaluate your career options, what prospects do you have after your graduation, and then compare it to what your position will be if your pursue your law degree now . If you really want to be a lawyer, you should go for the NLU option as then our Sociology degree won't really matter much academically

you also have the option to complete your graduation now, and then give the DU LLB entrance or even CLAT again.

I secured 91.5 marks in clat 2019 can i get nlu shimla or jabalpur in gen category

With the score you're mentioning you'll get a rank somewhere near 10000-15000. So in general category you can definitely expect NLUs Shimla and Jabalpur. In general category they require a rank below 10000 in general category and also they have some seats reserved for the people belonging from the respective states so if you belong to those states you can definitely expect or else it would be a little difficult. But don't loose hope since you've a decent score. 

All the very best
