    Q:   Which one is better for LL.M, TNNLU or Nalsar University of Law?

    A: 

    The decision of whether TNNLU or Nalsar University of Law is better for an LL.M programme can depend on various factors such as faculty strength, diversity, and programme reputation.

It's important to consider the specific areas of law you are interested in, the faculty, the curriculum, and the career opportunities offered by each university. I would recommend reaching out to current students, alumni, or faculty members of both universities to gain a better understanding of their LL.M programs and make an informed decision.

    On Admissions

    Q:   What is the selection process for LL.M and what is the minimum CLAT score required?

    A: 
    The selection process for LL.M programs typically involves taking the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) exam. The minimum CLAT score required varies depending on the category and the specific LL.M program. For example, to be eligible for the CLAT UG 2024 exam, candidates must score a minimum of 45% for General, OBC, PWD, NRI, PIO, and OCI categories, while applicants belonging to the SC/ST categories must achieve a minimum score of 40%. The CLAT 2024 cut-off marks are expected to be lower than previous years due to the reduced number of questions (from 150 to 120) and the introduction of a new pattern. A score of 65-70% (approximately 78-85 marks under the new CLAT pattern) is considered good for the top three NLUs. The exact cut-off marks for each category and NLU will be determined by various factors, including category, seat availability, and the applicants' position on the merit list. The CLAT 2024 cut-off marks will be made public by the Consortium of NLUs in January 2024. In summary, the selection process for LL.M programs involves taking the CLAT exam and achieving a minimum score based on the applicant's category. The minimum CLAT score required varies depending on the specific LL.M programme and the applicant's category.
