How to study
Skim the questions, then read the passage once with a pencil: underline the issue, the rule and the holding. Do not re-read the whole passage for each question.
For every judgment you study, write five lines: facts, issue, holding, reasoning, why it matters. These lines become your revision notes.
Revise a topic after 1 day, 1 week and 3 weeks. Most forgetting happens in the first week.
For every MCQ, first strike out the options that are clearly wrong, then compare the two left. Say aloud why one beats the other.
One mock, a full review, then two days repairing the weak areas it exposed, then the next mock.
Read one editorial or judgment extract a day against a timer. Aim to read faster each week without losing the gist.

✓ To do
- Read judgments, not just notesCLAT PG passages are built from judgments. Read the issue, the reasoning and the holding of every major ruling; notes alone will not train your eye.
- Time every passagePractise in sets of one passage and five questions in about five minutes. That is the pace the paper demands.
- Analyse every mock for twice as long as it tookA 2-hour mock deserves a 4-hour review. Why was each wrong answer wrong, and why did the right one win?
- Keep an error logOne line per mistake: the topic, the trap and the rule. Revise this log every Sunday and the week before the exam.
- Master Constitutional Law firstIt has carried the largest share of recent papers. Fundamental rights, basic structure, federalism and recent Constitution Bench rulings come first.
- Track recent judgmentsKeep a running list of important Supreme Court rulings from the last two years, with one line on what each held.
- Learn the new criminal lawsKnow how BNS, BNSS and BSA map to the IPC, CrPC and Evidence Act, especially the provisions that changed.
- Take mocks in the exam slotIn the last three weeks, sit your mocks on Sundays from 2 to 4 pm so your brain peaks at the right time.
- Read every option before you markExtreme-level questions hide the answer in the difference between two near-identical options.
- Sleep, eat and moveSeven hours of sleep beats one extra hour of reading. A tired brain misreads passages.
✗ Not to do
- Don't skip the passageAnswering from memory when the question asks what the passage says is the most common way to lose marks.
- Don't hoard materialOne good source per subject, revised three times, beats five sources read once.
- Don't chase every new topic in the last weekThe final week is for revision and mocks, not new subjects.
- Don't fear negative markingAt −0.25, an educated guess after eliminating even one option is worth taking. Blind guessing on every question is not.
- Don't ignore the smaller subjectsIPR, environment, company and international law each bring a full passage. Easy marks for those who prepare.
- Don't compare your score after every mockCompare your own trend over three mocks. One bad mock is data, not a verdict.
- Don't study only in your comfort zoneIf jurisprudence scares you, that is exactly where your next five marks are.
- Don't leave forms and documents to the endRegistration closes on 31 October 2026. Check your admit card, centre and ID well before exam day.
