Hello Adhya
My suggestion for you is to clear that back in chemistry. Maybe you could get into a college or a course for now on the basis of 5 subjects but later on it could create problem if your future aspirations change.
So you should focus on clearing your chemistry exam.
Thank You!!!
Hello,
With an All India Rank of 1410 in CLAT 2025 and being a general category female student with MP domicile, you have a good chance of securing a seat at NLU Jabalpur (DNLU Jabalpur).
Your rank falls within the typical cutoff range for the university.
For other NLUs, you might be able to secure a seat at newer or lower-ranked institutions, but it's less certain compared to Jabalpur.

Hello,
With an All India Rank (AIR) of 38095 and OBC rank of 7627, it is very difficult to get a seat in any of the NLUs, even under the Tamil Nadu government school quota. Most NLUs close their OBC seats at a much lower rank. Also, the government school quota is not accepted by all NLUs.
You can still attend all rounds of CLAT counselling and keep checking for any vacancy or special rounds, but chances are very low with this rank. It is better to also look for other good law colleges as a backup.
Hope it helps !
Hi Ayan Ansari
You got an OBC rank of 1174. You want to know if you can get admission to RML NLU.
RML NLU is a good law university. They take students based on the CLAT exam.
It is hard to say if you can get admission with an OBC rank of 1174. You can look at last years cutoff ranks to get an idea. You can also check Careers360 website for more information.
Hi Aspirant
Based on your CLAT OBC rank of 1174 and your UP domicile status you are in a strong position for admission into RMLNLU Lucknow under the state OBC quota The university provides seats specifically for candidates from Uttar Pradesh under each category including OBC during the CLAT counselling rounds
OBC cut off trends at RMLNLU
In recent years the final OBC cut off rank for BA LLB at RMLNLU under Uttar Pradesh domicile closed between 3600 and 3800 in the last counselling round
Spot and vacancy round cut offs have been observed around 900 to 1300 for OBC UP candidates
Early round cut off ranks for OBC UP have ranged between 2300 and 3370 depending on branch demand and seat availability
Your rank and chances
With a rank of 1174 you are well within both early round and vacancy round OBC UP cut off ranks
You stand a solid chance of admission even in initial rounds due to your strong rank relative to closing ranks
Even if seats close later in the process your rank is still competitive enough to secure admission
Counselling phase impact
In Round 1 and Round 2 your rank is better than typical closing rank ensuring high probability of seat allotment
If you miss early rounds you can still get a seat in vacancy or mop up rounds when cut offs extend beyond 1300
Staying active in all counselling rounds increases your chances of confirmation
Steps to proceed during counselling
• Register for CLAT counselling for both All India and State quotas
• While entering preferences include RMLNLU under OBC UP category at top
• Participate in early rounds to maximize seat availability
• Do not drop out of counselling even after first seat allotment attempt
• Keep all documents ready for verification during seat allotment
Additional advice
• Secure your seat in early rounds to avoid unpredictability later
• Be ready to join if you receive an allotment offer in any round
• Monitor cut off rank changes each day to stay informed
• In case RMLNLU is not allotted use equivalent options like other Tier two NLUs during state rounds
hey, Having a CLAT rank of 21,000 and an SC category rank of approximately 1,000, you may get a good chance by applying to NLUs in which SC category seats remain unfilled. At this rank extend, there are routinely open positions at state NLUs or more current NLUs with reserved seats SC candidates. Focus on appying to NLUs such as NLU Jodhpur, NLU Odisha or NLU Tamil Nadu, which occasionally have vacancies in saved categories. As well, monitor the CLAT guiding entry in terms of opening overhauls and participate in spot rounds properly.
