No, the Consortium of National Law Universities will release the CLAT 2027 admit card in the last week of November or we can say around ten days before the exam date.

Yes, but only if you are eligible for both. You can prepare the overlapping areas together. These include comprehension, current affairs, and reasoning. NLSAT needs extra essay and written-answer practice, while CLAT needs maths practice and timed MCQ drills.

No. Both exams test reading, awareness, and reasoning. NLSAT also includes subjective legal reasoning and essay writing. CLAT UG also tests Quantitative Techniques. NLSAT has no maths section.

NLSAT is harder in analysis and writing. CLAT is harder in speed and pressure. In 2026, NLSAT Part A was difficult because of a heavy reading load, while CLAT was moderate overall. NLSAT also has a lower acceptance rate of about 2%, compared with about 5% for CLAT.

Neither CLAT nor SLAT is universally better. They serve different career goals, test styles, and college targets. Students who want to get into National Law Universities should appear for CLAT. The SLAT exam is held for admission to Symbiosis Law Schools.
