Your merit and preference will have to work in tandem in order to ensure a seat for you at a National Law University. Imagine a scenario- you score exceptionally well in CLAT 2018, but while filling the CLAT 2018 examination form you had opted for National Law Universities placed at the bottom in college ranking chart.
