HOW TO PREPARE FOR MATHS IN CLAT FOR CLAT 2022

Most students do not give emphasis to this section under the approach chod bhi denge toh kya fark pdega. But to be honest it will create a lot of difference when the NLU selections take place. Even a 0.25 mark can lead you to get a better NLU. Since this is the smallest section (in terms of questions) you need not give a lot of time for the preparation but even if you practice questions weekly you can get a decent score. 

1. It is important to bust a myth right in the beginning that maths questions can only be solved by those who have taken maths in their 11th and 12th. In reality, the questions that are asked are from your high school books and are not that tough. 

2. Before solving questions ensure that you know the basics. It is better to make notes for formulas (for example mensuration) and revise them timely.

3. Use RS Aggarwal or any book that has pictorial or diagrammatical questions related to pie charts, and bar graphs among others to solve questions. 

4. Do not skip this section. Even if you give 10 minutes you can get close to 7-8 marks if you have decent speed. However, if it comes as a trade-off between sections where let's imagine that you only have 10 minutes, in the end, give those minutes to that section that will help you to score better marks.  

5. If you are not good at maths do not solve all the questions. Since this section would be a mix of tough and easy questions, solve the easy questions. For this read the question, if you are able to understand this, then give it a shot otherwise prefer to leave.

BEST SOURCES FOR CLAT PREPARATION

  This blog is a quick summary of all the relevant sources that might be helpful for CLAT preparation. Also, I have mentioned how can you avail of the sources.  Before you begin with the sources make sure that you surf through the CLAT 2021 and CLAT 2022 question paper so that you can easily understand what the paper expects you to do.  1.       ENGLISH LANGUAGE - The key goal of reading passages is to understand and interpret the passage to easily solve the following questions that are directly related to the text. Hence, one must develop a good reading habit that helps to read quickly and efficiently. The most basic source would be the editorial section of a newspaper that helps you to understand the current topics (The passages in the final exam are mostly asked from passages that are picked from newspapers). Further, one can read novels in the genre that interests the person. Books from your coaching institution would help you to solve passages and understand the various kind o

HOW TO MANAGE CLAT AND BOARD EXAMS?

Image
 A question that many CLAT aspirants often ask is how to manage CLAT and Board exams simultaneously? The question gains its legitimacy as Class 12th is always considered the 'career determining year' (in most streams this is not true). But, honestly, it's not as tough as it might sound. It's just a mix of proper strategy and focus that would help you to give your best in both.  1. The first important consideration is out of the two, to which thing do YOU  give more emphasis? This is clearly based on everyone's personal preference. For example, if you are clear that you want to pursue law, then you need not give a lot of emphasis on the boards. You just need a minimum of 45% if you belong to the general category and 40% in the SC/ST category. However, if you are unclear (which in most circumstances people are, including me) then it is better to give equal (close to equal) emphasis on both depending on how good your reading speed or how fast can you learn.  2.
