When we asked Swati what preparation strategy she adopted to crack the prestigious law entrance exam, she shared, “I went through the syllabus of CLAT LLM entrance thrice. I focused on bare acts and legal concepts and while preparing for the exam maintained consistency and regularity in studies. Apart from that, I laid emphasis on group discussions and solved many MCQs.”

Swati also added that she never took any coaching for CLAT exam. Regarding the same she said, “I didn't take any coaching. But I am fortunate as I got constant guidance from my uncle (chacha ji) who is Additional Public Prosecutor and aunt (chachi ji) who is Additional District Judge, and my brother.”

Talking about how she dealt with her weaknesses and strengths at the time of CLAT preparation, Swati shared, “I always follow three Ds – Determination, Dedication, and Devotion. These three Ds have always made me give my best in anything. However, whenever I lose hope I talk to my brother who always motivates and supports me. Besides, I am also thankful to my parents who support me in all ways.”

  Prepare hard with confidence, maintain consistency and end your preparation timely so that you have time to revise the syllabus.  

In her near future, Swati is not planning to appear for any other law entrance exam. However, she revealed that in the past she had appeared for DU LLM entrance exam in which she secured Rank 14. Also, she is currently, awaiting her result for UP Judiciary Mains examination. According to Swati, “In future, I just want to do my best in legal field and enjoy my life.”
