National Law School of India University, Bangalore

Congratulations on your CLAT AIR of 3348! Your chances of getting into an NLU depend on several factors, including the category you belong to, the reservation policy of the NLUs, the availability of seats, and the cutoff ranks of the NLUs. Based on the previous years' trends and cutoff ranks, you may have a chance of getting admission in some of the NLUs in India, but it also depends on various factors. However, it's challenging to predict your chances of admission in a particular NLU with certainty. It would be best if you researched the previous years' cutoff ranks and the admission process of the NLUs you are interested in and then make an informed decision. I suggest you check the official website of each NLU you are interested in for the latest updates on their admission process, including the cutoff ranks and selection criteria for admission. You can also contact the admission office of the respective NLUs for more information. Remember that admission to an NLU depends on several factors and cutoff ranks tend to vary every year, so keep your options open and apply to multiple NLUs to increase your chances of getting admission.
