English Language
• This section will test candidate’s proficiency in grammar and comprehension.
• Candidate should get into the habit of regular reading of a newspaper and any magazine which
covers the contemporary events well. This will help in building a good vocabulary and also help
with the General Knowledge section.
• Brush up the basics of grammar to tackle the error detection questions and sentence correction.
• Identify the words you are not familiar with and try to understand their meaning and usage.
• Listen to speeches or watch movies and/or documentaries with subtitles. This increases knowledge
of spoken English and comes in handy while attempting questions on sentence completion.
• Candidates should talk to people in English. They may feel sluggish and shy at first and will make
lots of mistakes but soon they will discover that with more talking, their confidence, as well as their
accuracy, is increasing.
Current Affairs Including General Knowledge
• This section is scoring in CLAT for the candidates who have interest in being aware about the latest
happenings and events.
• Read Newspaper daily (The Hindu, Times of India, Hindustan Times, Economic Times etc.) and
watch news (ET Now, NDTV 24*7, ABP News etc.) for at least 30 mins to have the best idea of what
is happening around in order to get through General Knowledge.
• Lucent’s General Knowledge book is enough for candidates to prepare well for this section.
Legal Reasoning
• Do not assume anything on your own and apply the facts.
• Choose the option which comes closest to the given legal principle and elimination method can be
used.
• Read a newspaper daily and try to learn new topics/ facts from it.
• Solve as many sample papers/mock tests/ previous year question papers as possible.

• Spend some seconds over a question and study each question carefully.
• Consider only the information given in each reading passage when choosing among the alternative
responses.
• Read both the factual passage and the sentence completion instruction carefully. Both must be con-
sidered in making your choice.
• Candidate should solve questions regularly to get a good grip of it as ample practice should be
there.
• Candidate can solve most of these questions by following certain tricks and shortcut methods.
Therefore, a practice of previous year papers and chapter wise questions is important.
Quantitative Techniques
