Important instructions for CLAT 

The Common Law Admission Test simply known as CLAT is a national-level entrance exam for UG (Undergraduate) and PG (Postgraduate) law courses offered by the Consortium of National Law Universities (NLUs) and many other affiliated institutes and universities. 

The CLAT exam which is mainly concerned with both UG and PG levels runs for 2 hours in offline mode and comprises a total of 120 MCQs (multiple-choice questions). The entrance exam is held once a year, most commonly during the last month of every year which is December.

Nevertheless, you may have thoroughly prepared for the examination but if you haven’t paid attention to the official protocol put out by the NLUs, you could face major problems. This is why we advise you to not just be well-prepared syllabus-wise but be well-informed as well.
