Is the preparation for clat just like preparation course for jee?

Hi Aveline,

CLAT or the Common Law Admission Test is conducted for admission into 5-year LLB programmes of participating NLUs . So, you need to prepare for it differently than you would do for JEE which is the entrance exam to obtain admission into engineering. However, CLAT is also a very competitive exam like JEE.

The CLAT question paper would have passages which are followed by multiple choice questions based on the passage. The CLAT syllabus includes English, GK and current affairs, logical reasoning, legal reasoning, and quantitative techniques.

You need to develop a reading habit and stay updated with current affairs and developments in the legal field. Practise with sample papers for CLAT to improve speed and assess your level of preparation.

Yes , the spirit needs the same but in clat one should focus on comprehensive skills and fast reading is the key to clat ..

The Common Law Admission Test is held every year for admissions to the  21 National Law Universities in India and is starkly different from the Joint Entrance Examination, which is an annual exam for admissions to various Engineering, Architecture and Pharmacy colleges of India.

Firstly, CLAT is much easier to crack as compared to JEE as the difficulty level and competition in JEE is much higher.

JEE-Mains consists of 90 MCQ-type questions ( 30 each from Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics) based on 12th standard syllabus. 4 marks are awarded for a correct answer and 1 mark is deducted for a wrong answer. The exam is out of 360 Marks.

CLAT has 200 MCQ-type questions ( 40 each from English Comprehension and Logical Reasoning, 20 from Elementary Mathematics and 50 each from Legal Aptitude and Current & World Affairs). 1 mark is awarded for every correct answer and 0.25 marks are deducted for every wrong answer. The exam is out of 200 marks.
