CLAT FAQs

Ques: Are mock tests truly necessary for CLAT preparation?

Ans: Yes, mock tests help candidates understand exam temperament, improve time management, and identify conceptual weaknesses. Regular analysis of mock performance is equally important.

Ques: Is CLAT UG easier than CLAT PG?

Ans: The two examinations serve different academic levels and cannot be directly compared. CLAT UG emphasises aptitude and comprehension, whereas CLAT PG focuses more on legal subject knowledge.

Ques: Can candidates change NLU preferences after counselling begins?

Ans: Preference modification rules depend upon counselling guidelines issued for that admission cycle. Candidates should review official counselling instructions carefully before finalising choices.
