CLAT Rank Predictor Calculator - Predicted Rank & Percentile

The CLAT rank predictor calculator turns your CLAT UG score out of 120 into a predicted All India Rank, percentile, and category rank so you can gauge where you stand before the official result is published.

• • Check your standing while waiting for results: CLAT results arrive weeks after the exam, but counselling and preference lists move quickly. A predicted rank tells you which NLUs are realistic.
• • Shortlist National Law Universities: Map your marks to the NLU tiers whose past General cutoffs sit near your predicted rank.
• • Plan a reservation strategy: See how your category rank changes the pool you compete in, which matters for OBC, SC, and ST seats.
• • Benchmark a mock-test score: Convert a full-length mock score into a rank to track improvement across attempts.

CLAT is the central entrance test for 24 of the 26 National Law Universities in India, and it is also used by several private law schools and public sector recruits. Because every admission flows from a single rank list, knowing your likely rank early helps you build a sensible preference order.

This tool is built for the undergraduate paper, which carries 120 marks across five sections: English, current affairs, legal reasoning, logical reasoning, and quantitative techniques.

Because the same raw score can mean a very different rank depending on how the whole pool performs, an estimate tied to real cutoffs is more useful than a rough guess, and it prepares you for counselling.

If you are also preparing for medical entrance, the NEET Marks to Rank Calculator follows the same marks-to-rank logic for NEET UG.

CLAT UG awards 120 marks across 120 questions, with +1 for a correct answer and -0.25 for a wrong one, so your raw score already reflects the penalty. The predictor models how those marks spread across the candidate pool.

• marks: Your CLAT UG score out of 120 after the Consortium applies its +1 / -0.25 scheme.
• totalCandidates: The number of undergraduate candidates who appeared, used as the pool size for the rank.
• category: Your reservation category (General, OBC, SC, ST), used to scale the category rank.

We treat CLAT scores as roughly normally distributed and calibrate the mean and spread to the published 2025 cutoffs: a score near 100 marks lines up with the NLSIU Bengaluru General cutoff of rank 114, and a near-topper score near 110 marks lines up with a rank near 10.

The normal cumulative distribution Phi converts your z-score into the share of candidates you scored at or above. Multiplying that share by the candidate count gives your All India Rank, and the same logic gives your category rank.

This CLAT rank predictor calculator is a planning aid: it shows the rank your marks implied in 2025, not a promise for another year's list, because difficulty and turnout shift every cycle.

According to Wikipedia: Common Law Admission Test, CLAT UG has 120 multiple-choice questions with +1 for a correct answer and -0.25 for a wrong answer, and 72,631 candidates appeared for the 2025 UG exam.

According to Consortium of NLUs, the CLAT UG paper spans five sections - English, current affairs, legal reasoning, logical reasoning, and quantitative techniques - carrying 120 marks in total.

The percentile step works like the JEE Main Percentile Calculator, which converts a JEE Main score into a national percentile against all candidates.

Four ideas explain why a few marks can mean a large jump in rank, and why your category changes the admission picture.

Rank and percentile describe the same performance from two angles: rank is your slot in the line, percentile is how far down the line you sit. Both move together, but rank feels the crowding near the top of the list.

Because CLAT counselling runs as a single sliding window, a swing of even 50 ranks can move you between two NLUs, so recheck the predictor after every official answer-key revision rather than trusting one snapshot.

The predictor reports all four ideas at once, so you can see both your national standing and your category standing before counselling opens, and decide where to aim your preference list.

To separate rank from percentile, the Class Rank Percentile Calculator shows the same distinction for school class standings.

The predictor updates as you type, so you can test several scores in seconds.

1. 1 Enter your CLAT UG marks: Put your total score out of 120, after the -0.25 penalty has been applied.
2. 2 Confirm the candidate count: Keep the default 72,631 for the 2025 UG exam, or update it for another year with a different turnout.
3. 3 Pick your category: Choose General, OBC, SC, or ST so the category rank reflects your admission pool.
4. 4 Read the predicted AIR and percentile: The result updates live, showing where you sit in the national pool.
5. 5 Match the rank to NLU tiers: Compare your AIR with the published cutoff ranks to shortlist realistic NLUs.

A student with 92 marks and 72,631 candidates sees an AIR near 800 and a percentile near 98.9, which puts the mid-tier NLUs within reach while the top three remain a stretch.

For another central university entrance, the CUET Score Calculator converts CUET scores into a comparable admission picture.

A rank estimate turns vague hope into a concrete counselling plan.

• • Plan counselling early: Know your realistic NLU range before results, so your preference list is ready on day one of counselling.
• • Set a retest or mock target: See exactly how many more marks move you from one NLU tier to the next.
• • Understand reservation impact: The category rank shows how OBC, SC, and ST seats change your odds versus the General list.
• • Avoid guesswork: A model tied to published cutoffs beats rounding numbers in your head.
• • Track mock progress: Turn each mock score into a rank to measure real improvement across attempts.

Used alongside your mock scores, the predictor also shows whether a study change actually moved your rank, not just your raw marks.

Running the CLAT rank predictor calculator after every mock keeps your NLU target concrete instead of vague, so you can see progress in rank terms rather than only in marks.

When you benchmark against global exams, the GRE Percentile Calculator shows how percentiles summarise a score across a large pool.

Several things shift the marks-to-rank relationship from one year to the next.

• • This is an estimate from a normal-distribution model calibrated to 2025 cutoffs, not the official rank; the Consortium's actual result and tie-breaking rules decide your true rank.
• • Category rank assumes the score spread is similar across categories and uses standard reservation shares, so treat it as a planning guide rather than a fixed official rank.

Use the outlook as a tier signal, then confirm with the official cutoff list released during counselling.

According to Careers360: CLAT College Predictor, the 2025 General All India Rank cutoff for NLSIU Bengaluru was 114 and for NLU Assam it was 2,569, showing how quickly rank rises as marks fall.
