We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.
Our full terms and conditions apply too.
Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
The correct calculations are the following:
General: 115 (approx 86 seats for all India but considering the past performance of Karnataka Students and the Domicile being horizontal, the All India seats will mostly go past 95)
SC: 36
ST: 18
OBC: 52
EWS: 19
Horizontal categories: 58 for women and 60 for Karnataka Students (Last year women's quota was not even triggered. The Karnataka Domicile is also horizontal in nature, and in the last two years not more than 15% has been triggered in the general category because students from Karnataka do really well in the All-India Merit itself.)
You can cry about reservations all you want, but the truth is General seats remain the same when a new reservation is brought about (by an increase of seats), thus, your seats are not going anywhere. Moreover, our public institutions desperately need to be more representative and reflect national composition.
