It's difficult to say definitively whether a 57%ile score guarantees admission to a BBA LLB 5-year program. Admission to law colleges, especially for BBA LLB programs, is usually competitive. While your Class 12 score of 45-50% might be the minimum requirement, many institutions also consider scores on law entrance exams like CLAT.

Hello,

Based on previous KLEE cut-offs , getting admission in Government Law College, Thiruvananthapuram with 162 marks under reservation might be difficult.

For the 3-year LLB course, last ranks for reserved categories were around:

• SC: 515

• ST: 1870

• BH (Backward Hindu): 315

For the 5-year LLB course, last ranks were around:

• SC: 969

• ST: 2120

• BH: 352

These ranks usually relate to higher marks than 162.

Hope it helps !

At the moment, there is no government law merit cutoff decided for SC category. Even so, I can offer some information from previous years’ cutoffs for Maharashtra Common Entrance Test (MH CET) Law.

How cutoff marks for MH CET Law have trended in recent years.

- The required cutoff to get into 3-year LLB programs changes depending on each college and their categories. In 2024, various top colleges had set cutoff scores between:

In the Open category, Government Law College saw a change in the score from 100 (the opening score) to 64.82 (the closing score). Even so, scores on the SC part of the exam might not be the same.

For the Open category, ILS Law College saw scores range from 99.95 (opening) to 42.23 (closing).

Generally, you need higher scores to apply for 5-year LLB programs.

For the Open category at Government Law College (BA LLB), the scores varied from 100 (attempt 1) to 70.19 (attempt 2).

Things That Influence the Set Choosing Score:

- The category and status of the college

- Having a merit and reservation process

- The amount of space on board.
