CLAT listens, publishes full merit list: Top 3 scores 30 marks less than last year at only 140-ish

In a bid at transparency, the Common Law Admission Test (CLAT) 2015 has published the complete second revised merit list of all candidates for download on its website now, after days of hiding individual results behind individual usernames and passwords.

The top three scores out of 200 this year were 143.75 at the top, followed by 137.75 as the second-highest, and 135.25 in third place.

In 2014, the three toppers scored 171.75, 170.25, and 170.25 respectively.

Merit list downloads, via CLAT website (merged undergrad merit list uploaded by Legally India below):

Postgraduate list

However, the currently published list does not include which aspirant has been allocated which college.

JD Gangwar had told Legally India two days ago that the CLAT committee had decided not to publish the full merit list because there was no compulsion.

He also said that because the CLAT regularly shared CLAT scores on a “chargeable basis” with private law colleges, publishing the full list would deprive national law schools of that revenue source.

We have reached out to Gangwar for further comment.

A writ petition in Jaipur has demanded release of the merit list, in addition to rectification of 15 remaining errors in the undergraduate paper.

Story to be updated.

You also might want to check out hqo many applicants were from the state of UP and past year trends before making such sweeping allegations. Jus saying, bruh

I dont think ongc powergrid should recruit people on the basis of their Clat pg score because if u see top 10 rank, 8 of them are from UP. Does it mean something? I am not making any allegations but somehow it doesnot seem right to me

It is very strange when we open HNLU (RAIPUR) site and click on URL:
https://www.hnlu.ac.in/clat2015/UG_COURSE.pdf
there are candidates in KASHMIRI MIGRANTS CATEGORY (UG COURSE)list whose ranks and names don't match with the official list released by RMLNLU. IT seems something is fishy ....

+It's too shocking that when we open HNLU Raipur and NLIU Bhopal(remove "https://" from URL to open the website), and open J&K (Kashmiri Migrant) List and cross-check with the list issued by RMLNLU on CLAT website, we find some candidates who are not from J&K, instead they are from other states. Referring to the following links:
https://www.hnlu.ac.in/clat2015/UG_COURSE.pdf
http://www.nliu.ac.in/clat/J&K%20Listn.pdf

It feels that something is highly wrong.........

Sherlock.
The students aren't from state of J&K. They are wards of kashmiri migrants settled in different states.

This is good, because now we will know exactly which rank chose which college. This is also useful to compare with private colleges like Symbi, Amity and Jindal and see whether anyone chooses them ahead of lower-ranked NLUs like Orissa, Assam, Ranchi etc.

WE CAN'T DENY THE FACT THAT CLAT-2015 QUESTIONS WERE EXACTLY COPIED FROM SITES AND MANY ANSWERS ARE ALSO WRONG WHETHER CLAT EXPERT COMMITTEE ACCEPT IT OR NOT. I WONDER WHEN COURT IS GOING TO TAKE ANY DECISION BECOZ 0.25 MARKS DOES NOT MATTER TO A CANDIDATE WHO GOT RANKS IN 100 OR 500 BUT IT DOES MATTER TO A CANDIDATE WHO LOST AN NLU BY 0.25 MARKS .
JUSTICE STILL AWAITS.....

I think my comment was censored: I wanted to make the point that the tophald of the merit list mostly consists of Hindi-speaking male students, so for those who want a crowd that is more diverse and also has more girls should not choose NLSIU. NLSIU will be a male-dominated Hindi club, just like the IAS. I think this deserves analysis, as even the PG CLAT is dominated by this crowd.

A very valid point. NLUs are an all India representing University and the exposure to various regions in the college life is very crucial specially in the study of laws in Indian context.

PSUs are recruiting on the basis of CLAT. They'll be calling approximately 100-150 students and out of 150 rank holders, 80 are from UP. This is so fishy! Also, if we go through UG merit list, top rankers are from different states and not from UP only. So are we trying to say that UP students have excelled and studied well only for PG exams??

Kian can we please have some analysis of the different schools: quality of infrastructure, campus life, placements, faculty etc?

Also, can you somehow find out the list of students who got into non-NLU law schools and their CLAT ranks? That will give a good idea of the ranking.

Guest 15 Jun 2015, 14:41

Why is the second allotment list not out yet?
No notification as well

"He also said that because the CLAT regularly shared CLAT scores on a “chargeable basis” with private law colleges, publishing the full list would deprive national law schools of that revenue source."

Thank you CLAT Committee for selling my postal address, email and phone number to colleges people didn't know existed.

kianganz 15 Jun 2015, 16:46

I'm not sure they're selling all your personal details.

I'd assume that the other colleges just use it in their own applications. If you apply to XYZ college, for instance, they'd then check what your CLAT rank was.

Can someone confirm who has applied for a non-NLU CLAT college?

CLAT 2K15 17 Jun 2015, 08:43

I didn't apply for non-NLU since I got into NALSAR but I did receive Application Forms and Brochures of a couple of universities by Email , (Snail) Mail and SMS Alerts [not bothersome, just once or twice]....

Can any body tell upto what rank seats have been allocated in second list ?????

Anon 17 Jun 2015, 08:44

To my knowledge, for non-reserved seats the last rank for Trichi is around ~1250, IIRC

ram 30 Jun 2015, 15:14

IT IS VERY STRANGE TO OBSERVE THAT THE CLAT AFTER THE SECOND LIST DID NOT SHARE THE INFO AS TO WHO HAS LOCKED AND WHO HAS OPTED FOR UPGRADATION. SHARING OF SUCH INFO WOULD HAVE CERTAINLY ADDED TO CREDIBILITY OF THE BODY RESPONSIBLE FOR CONDUCTING THIS YEARS EXAM AND LED TO MORE TRANSPARENCY
