(AILET evolves, but core idea: high-level aptitude + law flavour, strong reading and reasoning demand.)
Must-do topics (UG-style lens)
English & RC • Dense passages, inference, tone, argument structure • Vocabulary in context, para-jumbles, error spotting (if pattern reverts)
Logical reasoning • Critical reasoning, assumptions, strengthen/weaken, conclusions • Puzzles, arrangements, series, sometimes syllogisms (pattern dependent)
Legal aptitude/reasoning • Principle–fact style questions, but often slightly more analytical than CLAT • Constitutional / tort / contract / criminal applications with sharper twists
GK / Current affairs • High-value national/international events, law/policy changes, top court rulings
For PG–AILET • Heavier tilt towards constitutional law, theory, and recent case-law (similar to CLAT PG but with AILET’s own flavour)
Top traps (avoid)
Assuming AILET will behave exactly like CLAT — it often emphasises reasoning sharpness more than pure volume
Getting stuck in one monster logic puzzle and burning 15+ minutes
Ignoring English RC in favour of legal sections; RC is often a mark-rich area for strong readers
Treating GK as pure mugging instead of prioritising law-linked current affairs and big events
Time split (UG-type 90–120 min model)
English + RC: ~25–30 minutes
Logical reasoning: ~30–35 minutes
Legal reasoning: ~25–30 minutes
GK: ~10–15 minutes (Adjust to current official pattern, but keep this proportion mindset.)
Last-48h checklist
Do: • 1–2 AILET-style mock sections for RC + Legal + Logic • Review mistakes, especially in assumption/strengthen/weaken questions
Skim: • Law-linked current affairs (SC judgments, big statutes, amendments, commissions, major international developments)
Refresh: • Your short principle–application drills for legal reasoning
Quick frames
RC & logic: • “What is the author / argument really trying to say?” • “What would weaken or strengthen this?”
Legal: • Treat like principle–fact puzzles: apply what’s written, not what you think the law “should” be
Speed tactics
Tackle GK fast; don’t let it hold you hostage
If a logic puzzle isn’t breaking open after 4–5 clean minutes, mark and move; come back later
In legal questions, draw a tiny map: principle → key words → fact twist → outcome
Day-of mini-plan
Warm-up: one short RC and 4–5 logic questions; no heavy “last minute law notes”
In exam: • Start with your strongest section to settle nerves
Last 5–7 minutes: • Fill blanks, fix any obvious mis–bubbles, don’t start fresh puzzles.
