So you can choose Arts also in 11thAfter completing your 10+2 studies you will have to give some entrance exams for doing the L.LB One of the most common entrance Being CLAT (Common Law Admission Test )For appearing in the CLAT exam you must have completed 10+2 studies with a minimum of 50% marks.

Hope it helps....!!

Good Luck...!!!!

Hello Kartik, Greetings!

Here are few ways by which you can become judge in India:

1.Get a 5 year LL.B degree from a college or university recognised by Bar council of India. You may write CLAT(common law admission test) for 5 year Law course after completing HSC exam (12th std) if you want to pursue your course from NLUs(national law universities), they are premium institutions for law courses in india.

2.If you have already got a LL.B degree ,you may appear for various states' Judicial service examination conducted by the respective high court to become a Civil judge or judicial magistrate. If you are able to clear this exam in an early age (22–25),there are bright chances to become a judge of a High court before your retirement.

3. Another way to become a judge is to appear for Higher Judicial services (HJS) exam after having not less than 7 years of experience in litigation before a high court. After clearing the exam you will be posted as Additional district judge (ADJ) who looks after the all kind of cases in a city or town. You will easily get promotion as a High court Judge before your retirement.

Thank you, hope this helps.

Hey.



The basic minimum requirement to become a judge is that you need to complete a Law degree from a college recognised by Bar Council of India. You can pursue law directly after completion of Class 12th with a 5 year integrated law course like BA LLB, BCOM LLB, BBA LLB etc. Or you can pursue a 3 year LLB degree after completing any bachelors degree like BA, BCOM, BBA etc. This will take you total 6 years.

After class 12th 5 year law degree would be more suitable.

You can become a judge directly after completion of your Law degree by attempting the Judicial Services Papers. Each state has its own Judiciary examinations. If you clear the exam and the interview you will be directly appointed to the Lower Judiciary as a Magistrate.

Process-

Judiciary Exams are usually conducted in two successive stages like Judicial Service Preliminary Examination and Judicial Service Main Examination. The Preliminary Exam is conducted in order to shortlist the candidates for the Mains Exams. The score is prelim exams is not considered at a later stage while deciding the merit.

The Final merit list for selection of the judges is prepared on the basis of your total marks scored oin the Main Exam and the Interview.

ELIGIBILITY-

The eligibility criteria for Judiciary exams varies from state to state. Generally the aggregate marks required to qualify for the preliminary exam is around 60% for general category and around 55% for reserved categories. The minimum marks required in the Preliminary round to qualify for the Mains exam also varies each year for each of the state.

Syllabus-

The syllabus also differs from state to state, though the basic is mostly similar. The syllabus for the Prelims can include- The main subjects of Law, Current affairs of National as well as International knowledge, Indian Constitution,Analytical Skills and Aptitude.

The Syllabus for the Mains exam will include English and another Language as well along with Law subjects.

An interview is also conducted.



Other than this if you practice in any court of Law for a minimum period of 7 years and are more than 35 years of age you can attempt the papers to become An Additional District and Session Judge directly skipping the Lower posts.To become a judge in the High court, or the Supreme court, you need a minimum practice of 10 years or holding a relevant judicial office for a minimum period of 10 years and expertise in an area of Law. You can't become a high court/ supreme court judge directly after law.

Best of luck
