## About the 2020 paper

CLAT 2020 introduced the format used in later years: passage-based questions in five sections (English Language, Current Affairs including General Knowledge, Legal Reasoning, Logical Reasoning and Quantitative Techniques) for 150 marks in 2 hours, with 0.25 marks off for each wrong answer. The Consortium gave the question paper and answer keys together in one document, hosted below.

## Use

Because it is a single file, scoring is quick: attempt the paper first, then check the key pages at the back. Treat it as an older-pattern paper; the reading load per question is heavier than in the 120-question years.
