If you want to take the exam again, you can opt for one of the following options: 

  • Take other law entrance exams, such as LSAT India, SLAT or any of the state-level law entrance tests. 
  • Apply for admission to colleges accepting AILET scores. 
  • You can apply for admission to colleges that accept merit-based admission. The merit-based admission process refers to the process in which colleges consider your marks in the qualifying exam (Class 12 marks for UG courses and graduation marks for PG courses). 

Always remember that you should not apply for admission to a college that has not been recognised by UGC.
