Syllabus
The syllabus of AILET is on the same lines as that of CLAT. The important topics
of each subject are as follows.
English Language
Reading Comprehension, Grammar, Foreign Words/Phrase, Para-jumbles, Vocabulary,
Spellings, Inference-based questions, Synonyms, Antonyms, Word Usage, and Fill in
the blanks. The level of difficulty is medium and it should be a high scoring section.
Current Affairs & General Knowledge
The questions asked in the GK section are from two domains i.e. Static GK and current
GK. Static GK questions are questions from History, Geography, Civics, etc. while
Current GK covers major events in news for the past 1 year. Major topics are International
events, UN bodies’ Major developments in the areas of sports, geopolitics
and important environmental agreements, eminent personalities, sports, awards and
honours.
Logical Reasoning:
The Logical reasoning section has a fair mix of Puzzles, Directions, Seating Arrangements,
Blood Relations, Syllogisms, Series, Analogy etc. The Paper also has a few questions
of Critical Reasoning. This section is fairly simple and should boost the marks
of reasonably well prepared students. Legal principles may be used in the logical reasoning section to test logical aptitude but the examination will not require any kind of legal knowledge or technical understanding.
AILET Eligibility:
All candidates, other than those applying under the Foreign Nationals category,
should appear for the All India Law Entrance Test (AILET) and selection shall
be solely on that basis.
In order to appear for the AILET, candidates should have passed the 10+2 examination
and scored a minimum of 50%. However, candidates appearing for 10+2 examinations
in the year of the AILET can also apply provided they meet the above eligibility
at the time of admission.
