About this tool
CLAT countdown with mock-test capacity, current affairs coverage pace and section-wise daily targets under the 120-question pattern.
This countdown computes the days remaining until CLAT and converts them into prep milestones: how many full mocks your weekly rate allows, the pace needed to finish compiling the twelve months of current affairs the paper draws from, and daily question targets weighted by the paper's own section split. It follows the Consortium of NLUs pattern in force since CLAT 2024 — 120 questions, 120 marks, 120 minutes, +1 for a correct answer and −0.25 for a wrong one.

Splits the runway into concepts, sectional tests and a final mock-plus-revision phase with dates for each.
Tracks coverage against the roughly 12 months of news CLAT tests and shows the days-per-month pace required.
Daily question targets follow the Consortium's published section ranges, so Legal and Current Affairs get their real 25% weight.
CLAT UG has 120 multiple-choice questions worth 120 marks, answered in 2 hours, and yes — each wrong answer deducts 0.25 marks while a correct one earns 1 mark. The paper was reduced from 150 to 120 questions from CLAT 2024 onward.
The Consortium's published ranges are: English Language 22–26 questions (about 20%), Current Affairs including General Knowledge 28–32 (about 25%), Legal Reasoning 28–32 (about 25%), Logical Reasoning 22–26 (about 20%) and Quantitative Techniques 10–14 (about 10%). Current Affairs and Legal Reasoning together carry roughly half the paper.
Roughly the twelve months immediately before the exam — most CLAT current-affairs questions are set from news in that window. Track coverage month by month: if eight months are still uncompiled with 103 days left before your final mock phase, you need to close one month roughly every 13 days.
Serious aspirants typically write 30 to 40 full-length mocks in the final six months, each followed by an analysis session at least as long as the mock itself. This tool multiplies your realistic weekly mock rate by the weeks remaining, which is a more honest number than any fixed quota.
