NLU Odisha All Questions

If you are expecting around 80 marks in CLAT 2026, your chances will mainly depend on that year’s overall difficulty level and how the marks translate into ranks. In most years, a score around 80 usually places candidates somewhere in the mid-rank range, which means that the top NLUs like NLSIU Bengaluru, NALSAR Hyderabad or WBNUJS Kolkata are generally difficult to get at this score. However, some of the newer or mid-tier NLUs may still be possible depending on cut-offs, reservation category, and seat availability during later rounds. Students with similar scores in past years have sometimes received calls from NLUs such as NLU Jabalpur, NLU Assam, NLU Tripura, NLU Aurangabad, or NLU Shimla, but the exact possibilities shift every year. Treat this score as competitive but not in the top bracket, and wait for the official ranks to get a clearer picture of which options are realistically open. All the best!

Hello,

Sorry, but it's highly unlikely that you'll secure a seat in any National Law University (NLU) with 55.75 marks, even with an OBC category and UP domicile in the last round of counseling. You should consider the other non-NLU colleges, like other reputable private and government law colleges, for the admission.

I hope it will clear your query!!

Hello aspirant,

With 63 marks in CLAT, getting an NLU through the OBC-NCL category and state domicile is challenging but not completely impossible. Older and top NLUs usually close at much higher scores, but some of the newer NLUs may keep seats open at lower marks depending on this year's merit list and vacancy movement in later rounds. Your chances mainly depend on your final All India Rank, not just marks, so wait for the official cutoff list to see realistic options.

Hello aspirant,

With 64.5 marks in CLAT 2026 and EWS+UP domicile, getting a top NLU may be difficult because EWS cutoffs are usually high. However, you may still have chances in the newer or mid-tier NLUs, depending on this year's overall scoring trend. NLUs like NLU Tripura, NLU Shimla or NLU Jabalpur sometimes open seats for EWS candidates at lower scores. It's best to wait for the official ranks and counselling lists, as seats shift during later rounds.

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.
