For class 12 students aspiring to pursue a career in law, the path to success involves not only excelling in their board exams but also preparing diligently for the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT). Balancing these two important aspects of academic life can be challenging but not impossible. In this blog, we will discuss effective tips to help class 12 students strike a balance between CLAT preparation and board exams, ensuring their success in both areas.


> Identify Overlapping Syllabus
One advantage of preparing for CLAT/AILET alongside board exams is that concepts from classes 8-10 are tested. Identify topics that overlap in CLAT and board exams syllabus, and make a strong base there. The revisions of these topics must include solving topics and mock tests for boards + CLAT.

 > Regular Practice and Mock Tests
Consistently taking mocks and analyzing them helps significantly in improving your scores as has been proven by our former students. Mock tests have multifold benefits. Get accustomed to the updated CLAT pattern and environment. Judge your level of preparation. In mock tests provided by us, you will also find a thorough analysis of your weaknesses and strengths, along with personalized strategic insights. 

 > Utilize Study Resources
Make the most of available study resources for CLAT preparation and board exams. Use standard textbooks, reference guides, online study materials, and practice papers to supplement your learning. Utilize mock tests and previous years' question papers for CLAT to familiarize yourself with the exam pattern.

> Keep a tab on all deadlines
Knowing when to complete your application process and when the correction window will be open adds significantly to making the preparation process easy. It not only eliminates the last-minute hassle and stress, but it also creates a sense of preparedness and confidence for the student. Remember, tests are not just about D-day, they are about months of preparation before that, and careful observation after.

> Believe in Yourself
Lastly, believe in yourself and your abilities. Avoid excessive stress and anxiety by adopting stress management techniques. Exercising, meditating, maintaining a healthy diet, and sleep cycle are equally a part of the preparation process. Stay positive, maintain a growth mindset, and approach exams with confidence. Trust your preparation, put in your best effort, and believe that you have the potential to excel in both CLAT and board exams.

Good Luck!
