Candidates are generally required to hold a higher secondary education, referred to as a 10+2, which is an equivalent qualification from an accredited board in order to get into an LLB course. Their age must also be at least 17 years. In order to qualify for the LLB course, one must have earned a percentage around 45 to 50 in class 12. It is not a restriction of stream because the student from any stream of study like science, commerce, or arts can apply for the same.
In addition to this, some law schools have entrance exams for LLB admissions like CLAT (Common Law Admission Test) or LSAT (Law School Admission Test) which again assess the candidate's aptitude in subjects like English, general knowledge, and logical reasoning. Apart from the educational qualifications, there may be age limits for some institutions or universities. There may be interviews and group discussions as well for the shortlisting process. Those who take an integrated LLB program of 5 years should have passed 12th grade. A candidate who is eligible for the traditional LLB (3 years) should be a graduate in any discipline such as arts, commerce, or science.
