Hello,

From your profile it seems you're a law aspirant in 11th standard, to provide you a brief information about law courses, basically there are two types of courses one that is done after 12th standard educational qualification which is integrated law, that means law is combined with other relevant discipline such as arts in BA-LLB, commerce in BCom-LLB, management studies in BBA-LLB to name a few, on the other hand there is also three years law course named LLB for which a candidate need to be a graduate in any discipline from a recognized university to pursue this course.

CLAT is conducted for admission to various integrated law courses such aas BA-LLB/BCom-LLB/BBA-LLB to name a few, its scores are accepted by various government and private colleges all over India apart from the prestigious NLUs which are premier educational law universities, the eligibility criteria to appear for CLAT is passed/appearing 10+2 from a recognized board securing 45% aggregate, in case of reserved categories there is relaxation of 5%, explore more detailed information about CLAT at https://law.careers360.com/exams/clat

also, remember that CLAT is not conducted for three years LLB admission, it's only meant for five year duration integrated course, many aspirant get  confused regarding this matter.

on the other hand AP LAWCET is a state level exam law exam which is conducted for both five  years as well as three years law courses, the eligibility criteria for the former is same as that of CLAT that is passed/appearing 10+2 from a recognized board securing 45% aggregate, for SC/ST it's 40% and in case of OBC it's 42%, check out our page at https://law.careers360.com/articles/ap-lawcet to know more details regarding this.
