Hello Shivangi,

Since you've completed law graduation, you have several good government exam options where legal knowledge is your strength. Here are some exams you can consider:

• Judiciary Exams (PCS-J): State-level judicial services exams like UPPCS-J, MPJS, RJS, etc. are ideal for law graduates. You must have an LLB and meet the age criteria (usually up to 35 years). These exams focus more on law than reasoning.
  
  

• Public Prosecutor/Assistant Prosecution Officer Exams: States conduct these for law graduates. They focus mainly on criminal law and procedure.
  
  

• Legal Advisor/Law Officer Roles in PSUs and Banks: Organizations like SEBI, SBI, IBPS, and IOCL recruit law officers. Exams usually test legal knowledge, some reasoning, and English.
  
  

• UGC NET in Law: If you're interested in teaching or research, this exam is useful. You can later apply for Assistant Professor or pursue a Ph.D.
  
  

• CLAT-PG: If you're considering higher studies like LLM in national law universities or applying for PSU legal jobs via CLAT PG score.

Since reasoning is not your strong area, focus more on law-intensive roles and start preparing for Judiciary or legal-specific posts. Build reasoning gradually alongside.
