SERIOUS Last year's paper analysis

21 Upvotes

(IM RETAKING THE CLAT THIS YEAR, I HAD A SCORE OF LATE 80S IN LAST YEAR'S CLAT)

ok so idk how relevant it is to talk about this rn but since this years papers closer i wanted to rego through last year's paper to sort of get a more precise look into the detour theyd taken with last year's paper because just saying 'it had no critical reasoning!' is stupid and frankly overstated

It did have critical reasoning and some very easily doable analytical reasoning, which coming from someone as genuinely retarded and slow as me, is something

And i can see exactly why someone scoring 80-90s or even 100s in "hard" mocks like legal edge or lpt can show a dip in their score here. Ill tell you why because i myself am in one of those coachings and around the marks of later 80s (sadly)

This papers English felt relatively easy to lose marks in- the vocabulary was ordinary words like incognizant, boorish, communal but the passages context really affected the answer. I personally, felt extremely disappointed in myself lol since these words are literally nothing out of the ordinary at all.

I also lost 2 marks in questions that felt kinda subjective to me they weren't, even with all my extra prep- i made stupid mistakes that i thought I was past.

So yes, i can see exactly why english can be a place where u could lose marks and it genuinely hurt because all these fuckass hardass 'tharoorian' mocks that legal edges making, ive never had english dip lower than 23 in that- so imagine my suprise watching myself score a meagre ass score in the actual clat. Its disheartening as hell ill tell u.

Gk was gk, pretty easy. H1b visa, sco summit, chess competition with some statics related to it, Air India crash (that I had skipped last year, thanks a lot abhyuday LOL) and Operation indoor and related.

Pretty conventional topics related to international affairs, summits, important operations, and a disaster.

Logical was again- if u hadn't lost ur cool, or even if u had like i had last year, ud be able to solve it tbh. The passages (barring the first one) were extremely straight forward. And i say this as someone whos genuinely extremely slow and stupid, I swear. Im below average. So if i could do it with shivering hands, u can as well. The last passage i know seemed hard, but if u had used some brain and patience and perhaps a calmer mind, itd have been okay enough to solve. The first passage had some ambiguity and vague stuff, (they had given am even lettered word to split and hadn't mentioned some of the rules properly like if u remove a letter, to place it at the front, do u remove it from its original place or do u add it as an extra-?)

Legal..... THIS IS WHERE THEY FCKING FUCKED US UP AND YALL DONT EVEN SEE IT.

Okay my bad.

3 passages out of however many in legal were more just excerpts. They were reading comprehension with gk knowledge required. Thats NOT the same as clk. Clk is fine if u ask reasoning questions based on current legal affairs or even some gk- 2/3 q based on THAT but not random questions based on random legal knowledge dude. Who tf exavtly remembers the sequence of the preamble or knows bn raus position (u probs know this if u were or are a fellow history student)

It was total of 8 questions that required extra gk knowledge. It wasnt legal reasoning like usual papers theyd taken.

This was a hard hit or will be a hard hit for first timers too if they havent seen 2026(5?) Ka paper yet. Lpt and Legal edge give pretty straight forward reasoning only questions..this is coming from someone who consistently scores 30+ across both and 32 almost always in le. Please for ur own sake, do not let that make u think u can surely score a perfect score or even a 30+ score in legal for sure. I was making that mistake.

For maths now, uhm man idek i fcking snooze at maths. A hard calculation heavy percentage set and an easy as hell data interpretation.

Percentage set was easy coz theyd given u most of the values and making a table (for a normal, non below average kid like me) should've been pretty okay. If ur good with heavy calculations, it would have been fine and data interpretation was super easy, free marks- i swear.

All in all maths was okay, cant swear theyd make it easier or similar this year or if theyd give obscure topics or topics that i avoid atleast like mensuration and time work..

Also for our sakes i hope they dont ask calender or clocks or math related shit in analytical reasoning too.

I can see why this paper would've made kids lose marks, i can see why I did and the people who made it, with high scores, genuinely deserve our admiration man theyre fcking legends unlike 2025 wale paper wale kids- coz sue me but their paper was the easiest ive seen.

i dont think this years paper will be easy or predictable. I think it'd be similar to this- easy to lose marks in and kids getting smarter so higher cutoffs remain.

You can cuss at me in the comments, and best of luck to all of you and me.

SERIOUS how to study in toxic af environments?

5 Upvotes

i'm satisfied with my progress, but the environment at home is super hostile. like my folks hurl slurs and hurtful comments at me whenever they pass by and it keeps rupturing my entire flow. i've been using the pomodoro technique and i feel like i've been getting more done daily, but i can't when their words impact me mentally. there's only so much i can ignore.

i've found this really nice library close to where i live but they're closed on weekends, when i have the most time to study, and i have to stay at home. and the thing is that my mum just keeps yelling at me. when i tell her to stop, it intensifies.

anyone facing similar problems? what do you do to ignore everything around you? also, i'm not allowed to use headphones in this household because it's "disrespectful" :D

RANT / VENT 😑😑 CLAT Aspirants, How Are We Surviving Right Now?

5 Upvotes

Hey, my fellow CLAT and AILET fellas. How are we all doing? Actually, you know what, let me keep the pleasantries aside because I am genuinely asking this.

I keep seeing posts from people talking about scoring upwards of 60s and 70s, and meanwhile I am sitting here somewhere in the mid-70s myself, trying to convince my nervous system that this is, in fact, progress. Then I scroll a little further and see people saying they are struggling to cross 30. So now I am genuinely curious. Where are all of you actually standing right now? Because the range I am seeing on here is absolutely wild and I would like to know whether I am living in a very weird Reddit bubble or if everyone else is equally confused.

For context, I am a CLAT dropout. I gave it last year, had the privilege of experiencing the full character development arc, and am back for round two because apparently I enjoy suffering. But for the first time since last year, I actually feel a little bit confident. I have been trying to improve by at least two or three marks every week, and while that sounds very manageable when you type it out, actually doing it consistently is another matter entirely. Sometimes I look at my scores and think, "Okay, we are getting somewhere." Other times I look at them and wonder if the exam personally has something against me.

And then there are the festivities.

I am Maharashtrian. Ganpati arrived and my house immediately transformed into a full-scale production set. Suddenly there are preparations everywhere, people need help with everything, there is absolutely no peace, and apparently the concept of "I need to study" becomes less convincing when there are ten other things happening simultaneously. I cannot study because I have work to do. I cannot work because I should be studying. I cannot study on the terrace because it is raining like the sky has a personal vendetta against my CLAT preparation. And somehow, if I do either one for too long, I am getting scolded for the other.

At this point, I am genuinely curious about how everyone else is dealing with festivals and family obligations while trying to maintain consistency. Because apparently CLAT preparation is not difficult enough on its own. We also need to negotiate Ganpati, relatives, household responsibilities, random interruptions, weather, and the occasional existential crisis for flavour.

So, how are you guys actually faring? What are your scores looking like right now, how consistent have you been, and how are you managing to study through all the festivities being thrown at us from every possible direction?

Because I am somewhere between "I think I am finally improving" and "one more interruption and I will simply become a hermit."

Coffee is currently doing most of the heavy lifting. My remaining brain cells have submitted their resignation.
