Results of the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) were declared on Saturday, albeit two hours late due to server problems. Students from Nagpur were able to access the web site only by around 8pm to find out their marks.
Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) is an all India entrance examination conducted by 11 National Law Universities for admissions to their undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes (LL B & LL M).
The exams were held in May and students from Nagpur had to travel to nearby metro cities, as there was no local examination centre. The CLAT results were supposed to be available on the official web site by 6pm, but heavy rush caused the website to hang and it was unavailable for well over two hours.
At the time of going to press, Nagpur's highest score seemed to be 129 (out of 200). Two students Digvijay Khapre (student of Narayan Vidyalaya) and Amit Kinkhede (student of BVM, Civil Lines) have scored 129 and have got an All India Master Rank (AIMR) of 40. Due to the technical problems in the web site, a clearer picture of city toppers would most likely emerge on Sunday.
Speaking to TOI Khapre said, "The national law schools are the best place to study law. You have the best faculty, the best exposure as country's top lawyers come to teach there. They are a brand name and will form a strong foundation for our legal career". Khapre said his first choice would NLSUI-Bangalore as he believes "it is the best law school in the country".
Since there was no exam centre in Nagpur, there is no official statistics on how many students from the city had appeared for the exam.
Across India 24,000 students took the CLAT in May this year to compete for 1037 seats across the country. Held on May 15th, the written exam was for a total of 200 marks and had a time limit of 2-hours.
Nitin Mor, Nagpur centre head of Career Launcher said, "Last year the cut-off mark was 129, but this year the exam was very competitive. I expect the cut-off to fall to 115 this year". After the results, successful students will have to apply for online counselling. By mid-June the seats are expected to be allotted and the academic session will then begin from July 1.
For the undergraduate (LL. B) programme candidates should have passed Std XII examination with not less than 50% marks in aggregate (45% in case of SC/ST/OBC and persons with disability)
For the postgraduate (LL. M) programme candidates should have obtained a LL.B/B.L degree or an equivalent degree with 55% or more marks in aggregate (50% in case of SC/ST /OBC and persons with disability).
