Hello,

You must be aware that this year CLAT pattern has gone through a change,and talking about English Section you will be provided passages of about 450 words based on the contemporary, non-fiction writing
historically significant fiction. Candidates will be tested regarding their comprehension ability, how to draw out inferences and conclusions, compare and contrast different viewpoints, the meanings of the words and phrases in the given in the passages, grammatical errors, fill in the blanks etc. There will be 18-32 questions in this section.

From the syllabus itself, you can see that vocabulary,grammar and reading speed matter a lot here, if you have Norman Lewis 'Word Power Made Easy', you should go through this, it's an amazing book for vocabulary building, coming to grammar part you can build the basics from Wren and Martin books, this is the best option regarding grammar, and this knowledge will come handy while doing any error correction, fill in the blanks options etc. For reading speed, it's best you read the editorial part of The Hindu or The Indian Express, the more you read, the more better your speed will become, you can also enhance your vocabulary, these articles are written by prolific writer, this is a must step and until the exam, continue to do so,when it comes to reading articles, it's more dependent on how well your speed and understanding of language is, if it's fairly good, you can go through one or two articles, if not consider reading more articles for instance you can choose to read both The Hindu as well as The Indian Express Editorials, but this also depends on your schedule, if you have free time the more you read, the better your comprehension and vocabulary will become.
