Choose the best books for your preparation. For CLAT UG- Word Power Made easy by Norman Lewis, for General knowledge - Manorama YearBook or Lucent's General Knowledge, Read newspaper thoroughly for Current affairs, Legal Awareness and Legal Aptitude by AP Bhardwaj for Legal Aptitude, RS Aggarwal's Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning.

For CLAT PG, many books are there in the market but VN Shukla and JN Pandey are mostly recommended by top educators for Constitutional Law. For Jurisprudence, you can refer to Paranjpe.

Daily revision is a must thing. Try to complete at least one section each day. Once done with the syllabus you can move on to solving previous few years' exam papers and sample appears. Give mock tests on a regular basis. http://law.careers360.com/articles/clat-mock-test
