Education Law courses in India have some basic qualification requirements of eligibility criteria but they also differ with the college and level of education. In most instances, the candidates must have obtained an LLB or any other relevant degree from a recognised university or any other institution. Certain courses may have a prerequisite of prior work experience in the area of education or other related fields.

Candidates should have secured at least 55-50 percent marks in their Bachelor degree for admission to a degree course in Education Law. However, every law school/university in India provides relaxation of 5 percent marks to Scheduled Caste or Scheduled Tribe candidates. 

Students who have completed an LLM or post-graduation course may further their studies by completing a PhD in Law, also known as LLD. But if they want to make a career in the field of law then they can give the AIBE exam and get licensed to practice in the Indian Court. LLM can be opted for by those who want to join any of the specialised fields like Education Law Analyst, Education Law Attorney, Education Law Professor, etc.

No, you cannot proceed to Education Law after 12th. Here's why:

Education Law is a postgraduate specialization: This involves basic prior training in law to interpret these frameworks and their implications for the education sector.

The minimum qualification is an LLB degree: This is a three-year or five-year programme that provides you with an understanding of the basics of law that prepares you for further studies.

Hence, you must first obtain an LLB qualification before enrolling in an Education Law course such as an LLM (Master of Laws) or Diploma program.

The registration process for CLAT 2025 began on 15 July 2024 and ended on 22 October 2024. The Consortium of National Law Universities has now announced 1 December 2024 as the CLAT 2025 exam date.

Some of the challenges faced include complexity in regulations, inequity in access, and issues concerning online learning and the privacy of students. There are legal disputes on school policies, needs for special education, and disparities in funding. It is also a field that presents an opportunity to cause positive change through the establishment of policy that aids in the furtherance of educational equity and rights of students. Professionals in this domain further reforms, ensure obedience to the law, and deal with emergent issues such as technology and inclusion. It is through addressing these challenges that they ensure proper provisions of equity and efficiency within education systems.

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.

No, the CLAT exam is primarily for admission to undergraduate law programs offered by National Law Universities (NLUs) and other participating institutions. These programs lead to an LLB degree, but not specifically in Education Law.

The Andhra Pradesh State Council of Higher Education (APSCHE) started the AP LAWCET 2024 counselling on October 16, 2024, at lawcet-sche.aptonline.in.

AIBE or the All India Bar Examination is conducted by the BCI. It's a national-level exam that certifies law graduates who want to become a lawyer and permits them to practice law in Indian Courts. It is a two-hour pen-paper exam and is conducted once a year. Students who want to appear for AIBE 2024 must have obtained a Bachelor's degree in law from a recognised law school or university in India. There is no minimum marks requirement for the Bachelor's degree. The candidates should also have registered as an advocate with a state bar council of India.

Till 2020, the All India Bar Examination was an open-book exam. However, in 2021 Bar Council of India changed this pattern. This means that students can no longer take the help of books and study material to attempt or solve the question paper. That being said students are still allowed to carry Bare Acts without notes with them. For more details, you may visit the Shiksha AIBE exam page. (https://www.shiksha.com/law/aibe-exam).
