CLAT 2022 is an aptitude test which changed its pattern in year 2020. There is no concept of Cutoff as such in CLAT or any other related all India entrance examinations. It all depends upon the relative performance of the participating students who take the exam. If the level of difficulty remains low, the cutoff would automatically go high and vice-versa.
Secondly, CLAT is a very-very competitive entrance exam. Let’s see the CLAT 2020 once- ‘A total of 75,183 candidates had applied for CLAT-2020 out of which 68,833 candidates had downloaded the admit cards. Of those who had downloaded the admit cards, 86.20 per cent appeared for the test. Seats available across NLUs were approx 2600.’
