FAQs: DU LLB Admission: Law Faculty: Cut-off, Timing & Law Centres

These are the difficulties that you may face during the admission process of DU LLB:

1. Choosing a centre i.e. Campus Law Centre (CLC) /Law Centre 1 (LC1) /LC2 (Law Centre 2):

If you forgot your preferences i.e. CLC/LC1/LC2 that you filled up during the registration process, DO NOT WORRY. You will be given another chance. The university will open the admission portal once again for editing. You can change your choice later. If you face any hurdle, contact the concerned faculty members of the Admission Committee or contact the Dean of Law Faculty. 

2. What is the difference between these centres?

Frankly, speaking. Branding, culture and crowd is the difference. Rest everything is almost same. Same teachers teach at all the centres. (in my personal opinion and what i always heard for 3 years)

Yes, timing is different. so choose the centre that best fits your needs:

CLC  08.00 AM to 03.30 PM
LC1   02.00 PM to 07.30 PM
LC2   08.00 Am to 01.30 PM

These are not strict timings. In a week you might not have long classes on a single particular day. On most days there are only 3-4 lectures. But remember, every Saturday is also a working day. You will get vacations only on Gazetted Holidays as per the Central Govt. Click on link given below to see the Holiday Calendar of the university:



3. The last cut off for DU LLB admission:

In 2019, the last candidate to get admission in various categories secured the following scores:

Category   Marks (First & Last cut-off list marks)

UR            222-216 (Unreserved)
OBC         169-161 (non creamy layer)
SC            149-134
ST            102-72
EWS        189-178
PWD        003
CW          158-15

4. Placements in Law Faculty:

As far as the placement is concerned, there has been a small beginning in this direction. Some students have managed to receive a placement this year, and the placement cell is working actively now. This year, approx. 30 students have been placed in KPMG. Frankly speaking, it is not possible to arrange for the placement of 700 candidates every year, and the students of DU LLB do not go for placements themselves as there are so many options already available to them.

How to prepare for DU LLB Entrance Exam?

There are two standard practice guides with previous year papers available in market to prepare for DU LLB Entrance exam. 

1. Universal Publication

2. Singhal Publication

Both are almost similar. You can buy either of them from bookshop near Campus Law Center Building, Law Faculty, delhi University (a.k.a CLC old building) at a fixed and discounted price. But remember to buy a latest version. (To practice model sets-- many times questions match exactly in exams from them). I personally find Singhal Publication better and would recommend Singhal.

Paper has two portions I call them Static (Legal Aptitude, Maths, Reasoning etc.) and Dynamic (Current Affairs). Guides have previous year papers as well as model practice sets. Questions of static portion is mostly repeated in exams from both previous year and model sets. Though dynamic portion can have unseen questions but still some questions do come from Model Sets.
