1. Most of the students who are enrolled in coaching face this issue of lack of personalised attention and guidance. Classes are held in a group of hundreds and you are nothing but a potential rank holder for them and they won't give a thought about you if you fail to score well consistently in the coaching's mocks. You have no person to reach out to in case you have a specific doubt in a specific question of a particular mock and this prevents you from achieving conceptual clarity. But in the case of NLTI, the students are divided into nuclear groups of 8 and each mentor has a maximum of 30 mentees. This solves this problem of lack of personalised attention because the mentor personally keeps all his/her mentees accountable. The mentors are available promptly via telegram chat and you can ask them ANY question at any point of the day - be it strategic, mock related or generally also if you are feeling low or hopeless.

It takes independent, dedicated effort to set up an institute and run it. Fielding calls at 9 pm in the night or copy-pasting mocks on Sunday evenings doesn't do it. The institute has potential provided it at least has a couple of full-time faculty or caretakers.
As for the concept being 'underrated', you're simply for the fallacy that is outlined in the 'Peter Principle'. Good students/ test-takers don't necessarily make good teachers. At best they can give you what worked for THEM. Of course, by listening to a tonne of successful experiences might let you brute-force the CLAT given that the number of attempts are only limited by your lifespan-17.
But what usually happens when you're flooded with 'approaches' is that you get all muddled.
What you need to do for CLAT is to figure out an approach that works for you. Mocks help with that. Stick to some institute who invests a chunk of money on mocks and provides good, updated mocks, like some of the institutes mentioned below.
Then, you need 'good teachers' for conceptual clarity although self-study is a decent way to leg-it for anyone.
NLTI basically makes you pay for listening to 'experiences' of successful test-takers and a few minutes of their time.
