NEW DELHI: The Consortium of National Law Universities has released the CLAT answer key 2021 on July 23, 2021. As of now, candidates are allowed to raise their objections against the answer key of CLAT 2021 . More importantly, with the answer key in hand, candidates will now be able to calculate their approximate CLAT marks which will surely give them a fair idea about their chances of getting a seat in national law universities.

The previous year’s CLAT cut-offs are an important indicator when it comes to knowing the approximate cut-off for national law universities this year. Therefore, candidates after calculating their marks using CLAT answer key, should check where they stand when compared to the previous year’s cut-off.

The CLAT cut-off this year will depend on several factors that include:

  1. Number of candidates appeared this year (around 59,000 in UG CLAT and 10,000 in CLAT LLM)

  2. Number of seats offered by the universities - 2,622 in UG CLAT and around 800 seats in CLAT LLM

  3. Difficulty level of CLAT 2021 - It was easy to moderate, so, the cut-off for CLAT 2021 is expected to be higher than the previous year

  4. NLU preference of candidates for admission

The previous year CLAT cut-off details are given below for all participating national law universities.
