How to study for gk and ca section of CLAT?

Hi Yadnyesh,

Thanks for asking careers360,

First thing first develops a passion for reading.

There are two parts to CLAT GK preparation.

1. Current Affairs: Make sure you read the “The Hindu” daily for international Current Affairs and “The Economic Times” for your daily dose of business news. As can be seen from previous CLAT papers there are certain business/economics related questions.Sports is another area where you can get sure shot question eg. RIO Olympics, Paralympics and international achievements of Indian sportsperson’s.Schemes/Acts by the Govt. of India: different schemes their objectives are to be extensively covered. Many a times questions are asked about the launch date of schemes and the stakeholders in the scheme.
2. Static GK: History, Geography, Science and blah blah. Don’t worry this part needs a little brush up of stuff you have read pre 10th.
3. History: focus more on the pre-independence and post-independence history of India. World history is rarely touched in CLAT
4. Geography: World and Indian geography.More trivia like questions such as “ Which is the northernmost capital in the world?” and: Reykjavik this kind of questions make the student ponder about his or her analytical capability in GK.
5. Science: Focus more on a day to day general science questions. Inventors, discoveries and past Nobel prize winners very important.
