Taara, who appeared for the AIBE 19 exam 2024, found the exam to be of moderate difficulty. She mentioned that being allowed to carry Bare Acts for AIBE with short notes was very helpful in solving the questions.

Lucky thought the paper was moderate and is expecting a score of over 70 marks. He appreciated being allotted a test center which was known to him as it saved time.

Joel pointed out that since the exam is no longer an open-book format, it was a bit challenging to attempt all the questions. However, he found the Bare Acts with short notes helpful in answering the majority of the questions.

Aadvika felt the exam was moderate, but noted that the difficulty level had increased this year. She suggested that the BCI should consider returning to the open-book format, as it would benefit candidates who are already practicing law. Despite not using the Bare Acts, she attempted over 80 questions.

Saurav, a first-time candidate pursuing her master’s, found the paper quite difficult. She mentioned that the questions focused on legal theory, constitutional law, and family law.

Baladithya described the question paper as tough. Despite being allowed to bring Bare Acts into the exam hall, he decided not to carry them. However, he is hopeful that he will score well.

Final semester candidates of LLB without backlogs are eligible to apply for AIBE-20 exam. Because you are in 5th semester of LLB and AIBE 20 will be held in December 2025. So not eligible for AIBE 20.
