Cracking the next CLAT on May 15, 2011

The Common Law Admission Test (CLAT), from 2011 onwards plans to focus its approach more on the aptitude and reasoning skills of a candidate with more weightage to current affairs than general knowledge. The next CLAT will be held on May 15, 2011. M.P. Singh Vice-Chancellor, West Bengal National University of Juridical Sciences Kolkata, told Times of India, “We want to test student’s knowledge on current affairs, than just on some standard facts and figures. There might be exclusion of legal knowledge as sections like legal aptitude, critical and logical reasoning will be given prominence. However, the question paper components will remain similar to that of last year, except that certain sections will be stressed upon”.
