The marks or score required to pass the entrance exam for an LLB (Bachelor of Law) program can vary depending on the university or exam you're applying to. For example, national-level exams like CLAT (Common Law Admission Test) and state-level exams like MH CET Law have different cut-off marks. Generally, for prestigious law schools like National Law Universities (NLUs), a higher score is necessary due to intense competition.
For CLAT, candidates typically need to score in the top percentile to get into top NLUs. A score of 80-100 out of 150 is considered competitive, though the exact number depends on the difficulty of the exam and the specific institution. Other exams, like the AILET (All India Law Entrance Test) conducted by NLU Delhi, require high marks due to limited seats.
State-level law entrance exams may have lower cut-offs but still require adequate preparation to ensure you secure a seat in a reputable college. Additionally, factors like category (General, SC, ST, OBC) and reservation policies influence the required marks.
Make sure to prepare thoroughly in areas such as legal aptitude, general knowledge, logical reasoning, and English, as these are the common sections of most law entrance exams.
