A score of 30 in SLAT 2026 is kind of average, not too high or too low. It depends on the SLAT cut off 2026 for each Symbiosis Law School (SLS). For SLS Pune or Noida, cut off usually goes higher. But for SLS Hyderabad or Nagpur, 30 might still work fine if the SLAT merit list 2026 allows.

No, SLAT 2026 gives you only one attempt in a year. You can't take the test twice in the same admission cycle. The score from that single attempt is used for admission to all Symbiosis Law Schools. If you want to try again, you can apply next year when the new SLAT exam opens.
