Hi

LLB i. e. Bachelor of Legislative Law, is an undergraduate law programme .

One has the option to pursue llb in two ways:-

  • 5 year llb /integrated llb like BA llb, Bcom llb etc :- One becomes eligible for 5 year integrated LLB like BA LLB etc with qualification of 10 + 2


  • 3 year llb :- for 3 year llb , you need to be  a graduate.

As your profile suggests that you are class 12 student I would suggest you to go for 5 year LLB like ba llb etc  directly without waiting for graduation for doing 3 year llb. And don't worry even if you are an arts student, you are still eligible for 5 year LLB like ba llb.

>>>>>>>>> Top ENTRANCE exams for 5 year LLB.


If you want to get admission in 5 year LLB  then after 12th  some of the entrance examination which you can write are provided below :-

  • *AILET - All India Law Entrance Test

  • *LSAT - Law School Admission Test

  • *MHCET law entrance exam

  • *TS LAWCET

  • *LPUNEST

  • *CULEE

Out of all these CLAT is most widely accepted entrance examination for 5 year LLB

To give you a gist of eligibility criteria,
