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. 


In this article, we have jotted down below the important instructions that you need to be aware of for the CLAT examination. 


As Per the official site, the General Exam Day instructions for the CLAT entrance exam 2024 have been released. However, there isn’t much of a change in the instructions and they are very identical to last year’s.


> It is mandatory to bring your CLAT admit card and any government-issued identity proof for verification to the exam center on the day of the exam. If not, you will not be permitted to appear for the exam.


> Any modifications to the exam center shown on the admission card will not be allowed. 

> Candidates must arrive at the exam center at least one hour early for the exam.

> You will not be permitted to enter the exam hall after 15 minutes of the beginning of the examination.

> Gadgets must be switched off and put in the designated area.

> Candidates using scribe must provide an SAP (PwD) certificate.
