- CLAT 2023 - 13000s (12th std)
- CLAT 2024 - 3000s (GK + Math hogaya hota toh would have landed a tier1 nlu) + drop year tha
i prepped heavy for clat 2024, realised shortcomings in the GK and Math section. I have been the top of my classes for an entire year, My gut feeling says taking a partial drop and writing clat 2025 one LAST TIME with all my might in the last 4 months, I know i have the potential and there's room for growth. I just wanna go ALL OUT ONE LAST TIME.
People on Legally India please answer realistically, i would really appreciate advice from experienced people hailing from NLUS NON NLUS PRIVS ETC... Thanks a Lot!!1
This however? I'd suggest you at least join a good private institute like Symbi, NMIMS, NIRMA or Jindal - if you then still wish, you can give CLAT once more.
I got through a T2 NLU on my first attempt as a GC student, but would have gotten a T1 if I hadn't burned out from the variety of exams across fields my parents forced me to give (IPMAT, BBA and so on) - I also have ADHD so it is hell to focus on a timed exam.
I planned to give CLAT again the next year, but COVID was the kabab me haddi, plus it didn't seem worth it to me to risk COVID to give CLAT again when I already had a decent NLU.
I did well enough for myself here, and I suggest you buckle up for the same. I've said all of this to give a perspective; yes top NLUs are prestigious, but it is not the end all be all.
Now a partner in a London firm

Doing really well.
