HELLO LALITA,

It is important to learn some preparation tips and strategies that have always proven to help. These strategies are highly recommended to students undergoing full-time preparation courses. If you correctly apply these tips and strategies together, you are bound to make it all the way!

CLAT preparation Tip 1 – Understand the syllabus distribution

This is the single most important tip and yet the most common mistake that students make. Students tend to spend disproportionate amounts of time on Mathematics and Logical Reasoning. Therefore, by solving tougher and tougher problems from a wide range of topics, you ignore the other sections. However, as you can clearly see from the table above, Mathematics and Logical Reasoning together constitute only 60 marks. The more important sections are those of Legal Aptitude and GK/Current Affairs. Those two put together are 50% of the paper or 100 marks

CLAT preparation Tip 2 – Focus on Legal Aptitude

Students often struggle with this section because of two major reasons. One is that it is unrelated to what is taught in schools. And second, being the potential area to cover is very vast. However, in reality, you can benefit by knowing what the exam focuses on. The past 8 years of CLAT papers and questions typically tend to come from just 4 major areas: Criminal Law, Law of Tort, Contract Act and Indian Constitution

CLAT preparation Tip 3 – GK/Current Affairs Syllabus

There is no source from which you can study this section that will guarantee you great marks in this section. Even the best-prepared student would be confident of only 80-85% of the GK questions asked in CLAT exam. A best-prepared student is one who has been constantly reading the newspapers for over 5 years. He/she would have thorough/basic knowledge of all that has happened in the world for the last decade. However, over the years some patterns have emerged – areas that are known to be favourites among examiners and from where questions will definitely be asked.

CLAT preparation Tip 4 – Writing Mock Tests

You should definitely plan to write many mock tests. However, aim to finish at least 70% to 80% of the syllabus before starting the mocks. That’s the only way that you will receive any benefit from writing the test. Look for a good online mock test series, and aim to write at least 6-8 mock papers before the actual exam. Follow the exam conditions as much as possible. Consider the actual exam time limit as well.

CLAT preparation Tip 6 – Do not neglect English

Being strong in Reading Comprehension and basic grammar will take you a long way in the English section. Many students tend to ignore the section because they find it rather simple. This section is deceptively difficult and it is important that you are well-versed with the English language rules.

Good luck!
