Dear Aspirant,

CLAT is one of the most popular and important law entrance exams of the country. It stands for Common Law Admission Test. CLAT has 19 national universities participating in the test. It is conducted on rotational basis by the participating institutes. For instance, For the academic session 2018- 19, CLAT will be conducted by National University of Advanced Legal Studies, Kochi. CLAT offers 3000 seats in all National universities under it. So the success rate for the same is 6% as 50,000 students appear for this exam.

To appear for the same, candidates should clear class 12th with a minimum aggregate percentage of 45.  Candidates appearing for 12th in the same year are also eligible to apply. There is no upper age limit.

Hope this helps. All the best!

CLAT exam is the entrance examination for admission to both Bachelor and Masters Law programmes. For CLAT UG, you need to have atleast completed your 12th. Now there are also 5 year Integrated Law Courses under CLAT UG and there is no upper age limit for this, But for CLAT PG, you need to have a relevant Bachelor's degree. So in order to study LLM under CLAT PG, you should be a LLB graduate. Now you haven't mentioned your Graduation stream. If it is a non Law course you can appear for CLAT UG and if it is a Law Course, you need to complete your Graduation and then appear for CLAT PG.
