Hello junior,

First of all, all the best for 10th boards.

In 11th you can opt for any stream to become a lawyer. But I would recommend you to take arts side as political science would be beneficial there.

During 11th 12th journey you should prepare for CLAT exam to take admission in any top government law college like NLU.

I would recommend you to read newspapers daily from tomorrow onwards.

Keep your concepts and ambition clear and work for it until you achieve it.

All the best!

Hi. To become a lawyer, you must give CLAT exam for admission in BA LLB course. However, to take admission in NLU Delhi, you have to give AILET exam. CLAT exam consists of english, analytical reasoning, general knowledge, maths and logical reasoning. If you belong to general category and want admission in NLU delhi, you must score above 100 out of 150. Hope it helps! All the best.
