A resident of Kanpur city, Pranav had appeared for CLAT UG six years ago but could not crack the exam. Elaborating on the same, Pranav shared, “Six years ago, there was little awareness about CLAT in my hometown, Kanpur. I wrote the exam without any preparation and missed it by few marks. If I had prepared, I would have definitely been selected in CLAT UG as well. I don’t think that there is any difference between CLAT UG and PG. Both require same hard work.”
An extremely dedicated student, Pranav did not take any coaching for the exam. According to him, regular study at home and sincerity in the classroom made him achieve Rank 1 in the exam.
When we asked which books a student should study for CLAT preparation, Pranav responded, “Bare Act study is must. Apart from that, similar books are prescribed in the curriculum in almost every university.”
Talking about how he dealt with his strengths and weaknesses while preparing for the exam, Pranav said, “I am in the habit of creating a balance between both of them through firm determination.”

Yes, the application form for CLAT was released long back in August. Those who have not filled the form yet must understand that there is no right day to fill the form. You should fill is as soon as possible. Because if you miss it you have to wait one more year unnecessarily to appear in the exam.

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.
