Overall, it is designed to be a test of aptitude and skills that are   necessary for a legal education rather than prior knowledge, though prior knowledge occasionally may be useful to respond to questions in the Current Affairs section.

The UG-CLAT 2025 shall be a 2-hour test, with 120 multiple-choice questions carrying 1 mark each. There shall be negative marking of 0.25 marks for every wrong answer. These   questions would be divided across the following 5 subjects:

1. English Language
2. Current Affairs, including General Knowledge 
3. Legal Reasoning
4. Logical Reasoning
5. Quantitative Techniques
