Remarks
After completing Class XII and securing more than 50% in the board examinations, a person becomes eligible to give Common Law Admission Test (CLAT). If a person cracks CLAT by getting an All India Rank below 1500 (for general category), he is allotted one of the National Law University depending upon his rank. The admission process is smooth and doesn't require any change.
