Some top BSc LLB colleges in India are NLUs like NLU Kolkata, GNLU Gandhinagar, NLIU Bhopal, etc. But not every aspirant makes it up to NLUs in India, so there are other top BSc LLB college options as well, such as KIIT School of Law, Cochin University of Science and Technology, National Forensic Sciences University, Adamas University, JECRC University, and so on.

Only around 60 Law colleges in India offer the BSc LLB program, and the fee structure of every BSc LLB college varies depending on their rating, placement record, infrastructure, etc. However, the Government Colleges' fees are around INR 3.6 Lacs to INR 7.3 Lakh, and Private Colleges' fees are around INR 3 Lacs to INR 19 Lakh.

Hi,

Most universities require applicants to have passed Class 12 with a minimum percentage (often above 50%) in science stream subjects (Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics). Some may consider performance in entrance exams like CLAT (Common Law Admission Test) or university-specific entrance tests.

Hope this helps!!

Hi, Selection is typically based on a combination of factors, including Class 12 marks, entrance exam scores, personal interview performance, and sometimes writing samples.

For admissions to BSc LLB degree, candidates can prepare for various law entrance examinations simultaneously since the syllabus for these examinations overlap. The top entrance examinations are:

• AILET
• LSAT India
• MHCET Law
• TS LAWCET

Yes, there are many colleges offering BSc LLB courses on the basis of CLAT scores. Some of the colleges are: 

• GNLU Gandhinagar
• WBNUJS, Kolkata
• Adamas University
• JECRC University
• National Forensic Sciences University

Yes, to make a career in law or say practice in the court of law, it is mandatory to appear and qualify for AIBE, conducted by the Bar Council of India. Hence those candidates who wish to build a career in the field of litigation and start practising across various courts in India must appear for AIBE and procure the certificate in order to be eligible for advocacy. 

CLAT is more difficult than LSAT India because of the time constraint. Candidates have only two hours to solve 150 questions in the exam. However, the time limit to solve 92 questions in the LSAT India exam is 2 hours and 20 minutes. Thus, it is difficult for candidates to complete all questions in the CLAT exam within such a short time limit. Moreover, the CLAT question paper includes questions from Current Affairs and General Knowledge. However, the LSAT India question paper does not include questions on Current Affairs and General Knowledge. Consequently, the LSAT India is comparatively easy because of its question paper pattern.

In the curriculum of the BSc LLB course, candidates can also pursue Honours in their final year in the following subjects:

• Business Law
• Criminal Law
• Intellectual Property Law
• Constitutional law
• Human Rights and International Law

Since candidates who pursue BSc LLB also study various subjects from Science background, they study some subjects exclusively which aren't taught in other law courses. Here are some subjects exclusively taught in BSc LLB course:

• Genetic Engineering and Genomics
• Concepts of Chemistry
• Electronic Devices, Circuits and IC Technology
• Introductory Biotechnology and Cell Biology
• Polymer Chemistry

Hi, 

Some universities might offer specializations in specific science disciplines, such as:

• Physics (for patent law or intellectual property)
• Chemistry (for environmental law or food & drug law)
• Life Sciences (for biotechnology law)
• Information Technology (for cyber law)

Hope this solved your doubt!

The major differences between a BSc LLB and an LLB degree after completing a BSc course are course duration, syllabus and separate degrees and certificates. The differences could be understood from the table below:

BSc LLB course is a good combination of science subjects with core law subjects for Science stream students. The degree enables a learner to combine natural science and nature's law perfectly. A BSc LLB degree holder can pursue career in the field of law that supports science like Environmental Law. Hence many candidates who have studied BSc in graduation take up Law and pursue LLM in Environmental Law or Intellectual Property Law and enter into the field of advocacy or teaching.

There are possibilities that AI and automation can significantly modify the Law structure of India, primarily by automating the repetitive manual tasks like legal research and document review. This can ease off the work for lawyers so that they can focus on other important tasks like strategic and client facing aspects of legal practice, rather than completely replacing their roles. However, law students should start learning skills that can help them to work with AI.
