Thoughts on NLSIU Bengaluru and CLAT preparation?

My son is in his second year at NLS now, and honestly, the focus should be 100% on Reading Comprehension. Don't worry too much about those short online courses yet; they are more for interest than for cracking the actual CLAT paper. Just ensure she is reading the editorial pages of The Hindu every single day without fail.

That is a big ambition! For CLAT, I strongly suggest you look into the 'Legal Edge' modules if you haven't already. My daughter found their mock tests very close to the actual exam pattern, which helped her manage the time pressure better.

Hard work is the only way for NLSIU. My niece joined a crash course last year and found it quite helpful for the GK section, which is very unpredictable. Good luck to your daughter!

Does anyone know if those NLS online courses carry any weight for CV building? My daughter is also preparing, but I'm worried about her burning out with extra courses while juggling Board exams and CLAT coaching.

Just a small tip from my side: focus on the 'Legal Reasoning' section. It’s not about knowing the law, but about logic. Practice as many previous year papers as you can find, that is the secret sauce for getting into Bangalore.
