Factors Affecting CLAT 2025 Cutoffs

The cutoff marks for the CLAT exam each year are influenced by several factors:

  • Difficulty Level of the Exam: If the exam is easier, the cutoff is likely to be higher, and conversely, a more challenging exam may result in a lower cutoff.
  • Number of Applications Received: A higher number of applications can lead to a stricter cutoff, while fewer applications may result in a more relaxed cutoff.
  • Number of Candidates Qualifying: If fewer candidates qualify than there are available seats, the cutoff tends to be lower.
  • Total Number of Seats: An increase in the number of seats generally keeps the cutoff lower.
  • Previous Year Cutoffs: For top NLUs, the previous year's cutoff marks were high, which meant that only the top-performing candidates were admitted. For other NLUs, the cutoff marks have been comparatively lower.

These factors have historically influenced CLAT cutoff marks and will continue to play a significant role this year as well.
