Q&A Icon
Commonly asked questions
Q:   What does CLAT cutoff mean?
A: 

The CLAT cutoff refers to the minimum rank or score required to secure admission into a National Law University (NLU) through the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT).

Types of CLAT Cutoffs:

  • Opening Rank – The highest-ranked candidate admitted to an NLU.
  • Closing Rank – The rank of the last candidate admitted in a specific category.
  • Category-wise Cutoff – Different for General, OBC, SC, ST, and EWS candidates.
  • Round-wise Cutoff – Released in multiple counseling rounds.

Who Decides CLAT Cutoff?
The Consortium of NLUs releases the cutoff based on exam difficulty, number of candidates, and seat availability.

Q:   How is CLAT cutoff calculated?
A: 

The CLAT cutoff is calculated based on several factors that influence the minimum rank or score required for admission to an NLU.

Factors Affecting CLAT Cutoff Calculation

  • Total Number of Candidates Appearing – Higher competition leads to a higher cutoff.
  • Difficulty Level of the Exam – If the paper is tough, the cutoff is lower, and vice versa.
  • Total Number of Seats Available – Fewer seats lead to higher cutoffs.
  • Category-wise Reservations – SC, ST, OBC, and EWS candidates have different cutoffs.
  • Previous Year Trends – The Consortium considers past years' cutoffs for reference.

Cutoff Calculation Process

  • After the CLAT exam, candidates' scores are arranged in descending order.
  • Based on seat availability, the last admitted candidate's rank becomes the closing rank (cutoff) for that NLU.
  • Cutoffs vary across NLUs and category-wise reservations impact the final numbers.
