Avoid any new topics
While revision and practice are important, do not pick any new topic for study during this last hour. With the remaining time left, strengthen what you already know and leave the rest. Picking a new topic at this stage can lead to confusion between different concepts. Also, it will cut into your time for revising and practicing CLAT questions.

Keep marking scheme in mind
You should keep in mind that there is a negative marking in CLAT. For every wrong answer, 0.25 marks will be deducted from your total score. Therefore, do not make wild guesses in the paper. Only attempt questions about which you have some idea.
Strategise time
You should focus on time management for the upcoming CLAT examination. There will be 150 passage-based questions that you have to attempt in two hours. Although there is no sectional time limit, you should strategise time for each CLAT section depending on your strengths for the subjects. During the exam, you should not spend too much time on a question. Ideally, you should spend less than a minute on each question. In case, you are not able to solve it in that time, skip and move to the next question.
Check CLAT exam day instructions

The guidelines give clarity on the list of important documents to carry, code of conduct inside the exam hall, safety measure at the centre and so on.

The last date to submit the application form is October 31, 2025. It must be noted that the consortium will open the application correction window after that. Sometimes the consortium do extend the last date for registration but it is better to fill the form way before and why to wait.
