Q:   How can I become the topper of LSAT India?

A:

To become the topper of the LSAT India exam, candidates who are preparing for the exam must use the most effective practice strategies that the exam toppers used. For example, Priyanshi Bhardwaj, the topper of LSAT India 2021 with a 99.23 percentile, suggests that to prepare well for the exam, she familiarised herself with the format or pattern of the exam. Thus, the candidates who want to become the toppers of the LSAT India exam, first need to understand the LSAT India exam pattern. Knowing the exam pattern can help them understand which subjects they need to study. These are the topics based on which questions are asked in the exam. Understanding the exam pattern helped her manage her time while solving the exam question paper. Priyanshi also added that she solved the question papers of the LSAT India that were conducted in previous years and practised the preparation materials provided by the Law School Admission Council (LSAC). Solving the question papers of previous years and LSAC Prep materials can help candidates practise questions relevant to the actual LSAT India question paper.

Q:   Is the question paper of the LSAT India exam in each slot different?

A:

Yes, the question paper of the LSAT India exam for each slot is different, even if two or more candidates take the exam on the same day and in the same session. However, the pattern of the exam will be the same for all slots. Candidates in all slots receive the same time limit of 140 minutes to answer all questions. These questions are asked in four sections, Analytical Reasoning, Logical Reasoning 1, Logical Reasoning 2, and Reading Comprehension. Candidates will get only 35 minutes to solve an individual section. They will not lose any mark for a wrong answer. Thus, all exam takers have the facility to select the answer to a question as per their knowledge without considering the penalty of a score reduction while solving the LSAT India exam question paper.

Q:   How many questions do I need to attempt to become a topper of the LSAT India exam?

A:

Thus, attempting all the questions mentioned in the exam question paper can increase the chances for a candidate to become topper of the LSAT India exam. Candidates who want to achieve the highest score in the LSAT India exam need note that their chances of becoming the exam topper depend on the number of questions they answer correctly.

LSAT India 2023 Exam Analysis: An overview

Here we will share the details about the upcoming examination including: 

  • Exam difficulty level (overall)
  • Section-wise difficulty level 
  • Details about new section 'Variable' (to be disclosed on the test day only)
  • Expected cut off marks
  • Test-taking difficulties (if any)

Q:   Which is more difficult, LSAT India or CLAT?

A:

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.

Q:   What is the difficulty level of the LSAT India?

A:

The difficulty level of the LSAT India exam is moderate to difficult. The exam has lengthy questions, and reading these questions takes time. In addition, candidates also need time to solve all these questions. But the time limit to solve all the questions is 2 hours and 20 minutes, or 140 minutes. Thus, they get very little time to read and solve lengthy questions in the question paper of the LSAT India exam, which increases its difficulty. Moreover, the Reading Comprehension section of the LSAT India exam is difficult. On the contrary, the questions in the LSAT India are not based on General Knowledge and Quantitative Aptitude or Mathematics. The absence of these two sections that requires continuous practice makes the LSAT India exam easier than the CLAT and AILET exam. The sections under which questions are asked in the LSAT India exam are Analytical Reasoning, Logical Reasoning 1, Logical Reasoning 2, and Reading Comprehension. All LSAT India exam takers need to note that the difficulty level of all exams depends on your preparation. If you prepare well, you can crack the LSAT India and other entrance exams.

Q:   Are questions from GK and Current Affairs asked in LSAT India?

A:

No, the question paper of the LSAT India 2025 does not contain GK and Current Affairs questions. The questions come from three areas, including Analytical Reasoning, Logical Reasoning and Reading Comprehension in LSAT India 2025 exam. Thus, candidates need to study these four subjects to prepare for the LSAT India exam. To prepare better for the exam, they must start their preparation at least 6 months before the examination. They also need to prepare a timetable to study daily for the law entrance exam. Many books available in the market related to the preparation of the LSAT India exam can help them with their preparation. The books related to preparation for other law entrance exams, such as CLAT and AILET can also help them prepare for LSAT India.

LSAT India Previous Years' Analysis

LSAT India 2020 online proctored exam was held in multiple shifts and, on several days to accommodate the applicants.

  • On day 1, as many as 1,000 candidates did not take the exam from all three slots. Whereas, on the second day only 2% of the scheduled test-takers skipped the test. 
  • Candidates who did not show their photo ID proofs to identify themselves to the proctor could not take the exam by default. For them, the exam was rescheduled to some other day. 
  • The question paper of LSAT India 2020 online proctored exam had a unique set of questions that were randomly selected for all candidates. Therefore, none of the candidates had the same question paper this year. 
  • Moreover, the Artificial Intelligence-based test application also prevented the test-takers from cheating practices. 

Candidates can check previous years' analysis below: 

Q:   Which is the most difficult section of the LSAT India exam?

A:

The difficulty level of each section of the LSAT India exam changes every day. Based on the pattern of the question papers of the ISAT India exam (question papers of previous years), it has been observed that the Analytical Reasoning is the most difficult section of the question paper of the LSAT India exam because questions in this section are lengthy. Candidates need more time and reasoning ability to find relationships between situations, objects, or scenarios to answer questions in this section of the exam. Thus, the requirements of more time and reasoning ability to solve questions in the Analytical Reasoning section of the LSAT India exam make it the toughest section. The easiest section in the LSAT India examination is Reading Comprehension because it requires a good understanding of the English language to crack this section of the exam.
