For admission into one of the top 10 NLUs, a general candidate must score 80-90 marks in CLAT. The cut-offs for Tier-2 and Tier-3 NLUs are lower. When taking into account past years’ cut-offs in terms of rank, the gap in the cut-offs of top 5-6 NLUs is not as great as it first appears.
Here are the CLAT 2024 Cutoff Ranks for UG admissions at some of the top NLUs (Fourth Allotment List):
