There is no specific ‘cut-off’ for the CLAT LLM, but PSUs recruiting through CLAT LLM have cut-offs based on overall performance of the year . . .

Looking at last year’s results 5475 candidates appeared for the exam (CLAT PG) and the AIR 1 was at 125 marks and the AIR 5475 was at minus 4.75 marks. (CLAT has negative marking.)

Now, there are 632 PG seats through the CLAT PG and there will be around 50 PSU posts recruited through the CLAT PG. (Currently I am aware of ONGC- 15 posts, PGCIL - 6 posts, BHEL - 12 posts and a few more should get added in the next few weeks taking the number to around 50.)

Considering that each student will opt for either a LLM admission or a PSU job, scoring a rank between 1 to 700 (approx) should give an applicant a shot at a LLM seat or a PSU job. (I would have said 650, but there are usually a few last minute drop outs )

However, PSU posts are quite attractive to a number of students; so the higher the rank the better.

Though I don’t have any numbers / data - I would expect the general PSU posts to get closed within AIR 100 max.(Apart from the CLAT ranking, there will also be GD, Interview etc. for PSU posts)

Last year’s ONGC cut-offs were :

Category Cut-off Score
UR 109.25
OBC 98.75
SC 90.25
ST 91.50
PWD (VH) 81.25

Bottom-line : Aim at scoring an AIR of within 300 or higher
