CLATsyllabus has been changed and to give you a gist of the changed syllabus. The no.of questions asked will be reduced from 200 to 150 but the time duration will be the same

English: There will be no more direct vocabulary questions

GK: Static GK will be removed and only your knowledge on current affairs will be tested: This includes happenings around the world in the fields of politics, geography, climate, sports, awards, international and national happenings.

Mathematics: Only DI based questions. Here you should rely on the 10th Mathematics standards.

Logical Reasoning: More emphasis on critical reasoning questions. Comparison of data, Data Analysis, taking clues, interpreting missing data, coming to conclusions and making future projections will be covered under this Category. The questions here are interlinked and so if you get one formula correct, cracking the next few questions will be easy. So it's important to memorise and practise formulae. You should cover topics like Data tables, Data Charts, Bar Diagrams, Pie Charts, Graphs, Data Comparison and Analysis come under this section.

Legal Aptitude: No Legal GK questions but the reasoning questions will remain. You should practise on topics like General Theory of law of torts, Contracts and Criminal law and Constitution and Polity.
