Re: Latest Syllabus for CLAT exam
Here I am giving you information about latest syllabus for Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) for admission in various law course offered by reputed colleges in India . Pattern of CLAT (Under-Graduate Programme) Exam Description Total Marks 200 Number of multiple-choice questions of one mark each 200 Duration of Examination Two hours (02:00 hours) Subject areas with Weightage English including Comprehension 40 Marks General Knowledge and Current Affairs 50 Marks Elementary Mathematics (Numerical Ability) 20 Marks Legal Aptitude 50 Marks Logical Reasoning 40 Marks Syllabus : 1. English including comprehension The English section will test the candidates' proficiency in English based on comprehension passages and grammar. In the comprehension section, candidates will be questioned on their understanding of the passage and its central theme, meanings of words used therein etc. The grammar section requires correction of incorrect grammatical sentences, filling of blanks in sentences with appropriate words, etc. 2. General Knowledge and Currents Affairs As far as general knowledge is concerned, the candidates will be tested on their general awareness including static general knowledge. Questions on current affairs will test candidates on their knowledge of current affairs. 3. Mathematics This section will test candidate's knowledge on elementary mathematics, i.e. maths taught up to Class X. 4. Legal Aptitude This section will test candidate's interest towards study of law, research aptitude and problem solving ability. Questions will be framed with the help of legal propositions (described in the paper), and a set of facts to which the said proposition has to be applied. Some propositions may not be "true" in the real sense (e.g. the legal proposition may be that any person who speaks in a movie hall and disturbs others that are watching the movie will be banned from entering any movie theatre across India for one year). Candidates will have to assume the "truth" of these propositions and answer the questions accordingly. 5. Logical Reasoning The purpose of the logical reasoning section is to test the candidate's ability to identify patterns, logical links and rectify illogical arguments. It will include a wide variety of logical reasoning questions such as syllogisms, logical sequences, analogies, etc. |
