The Consortium of National Law Universities (NLUs) distributes the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) syllabus to candidates so they are aware of the subjects and key concepts covered in the examination. Additionally, the CLAT syllabus will assist the applicants in determining the crucial topics and verifying the topic-by-topic distribution of marks or weight assigned to distinct areas.

 

The questions are usually divided across five areas or subjects:

 

English Language - The candidates will be given passages to read in this section of the UG-CLAT that are each roughly 450 words long. A student in the 12th standard might be able to read these excerpts, which will be taken from recent or historically relevant fiction and non-fiction writing, in about 5-7 minutes. Each passage will be followed by a series of questions designed to test the candidate's comprehension and language abilities.

Current Affairs Including General Knowledge -  The candidates will be given paragraphs in this section that are up to 450 words long. The excerpts will be taken from non-fiction writing, journalism, and news sources. While the passage-specific legal knowledge would not be required, the questions may examine the legal knowledge or information covered in or connected to the text. A series of questions will follow each passage, asking them to demonstrate their understanding of relevant current affairs and general knowledge.

 

Legal Reasoning- The candidates will be required to read texts in this section that are roughly 450 words long apiece. The texts may be based on actual events or hypothetical situations concerning law, politics, or moral philosophy. 

 

Logical Reasoning- This section of the UG-CLAT will consist of a series of 300-word-long passages.

 

Quantitative Techniques - Short collections of facts or propositions, graphs, or other textual, visual, or diagrammatic representations of numerical information will be presented in this section of the UG-CLAT, followed by a series of questions. The candidates will have to extrapolate data from these texts, graphs, or other representations and use mathematical procedures on it.
