Revision through Study Notes

  • One needs to improve his/her reading speed which would only be feasible with solving and practising a greater number of questions, with a proper time limit on a regular basis. Some things you may keep in mind while preparing this section are:

  • Know the concept, don’t just learn sections. If you understand the concept, you will know how to apply it. Bare Acts for each law are available online for free.

  • Each provision has a fact-based situation as an example. Read these to get a sense of how the law is applied to real-life situations.

  • Know at least the summary of landmark judgments. Many times the fact situations may correspond to these.

  • Practise previous year’s papers as the questions revolve around similar principles considering its limited pool.

  • Practising them would help you excel in the section and would also assist in increasing your speed.

You need to familiar with the most fundamental source for any law in the country. Thus, these notes will help you in revisiting these important topics in order to prepare yourself for this section. 

In order to help you in the Legal Aptitude/Reasoning section, we are pleased to launch 10 days Revision through Study Notes for the upcoming CLAT & NLAT exams.
