The first four sections will feature passages of 450 words, from which candidates will answer multiple choice questions. The quantitative techniques section will contain sets of facts or propositions with corresponding MCQs.

The PG CLAT 2024 will include 120 questions covering various subjects, such as constitutional law, jurisprudence, law of contract, administrative law, torts, family law, criminal law, property law, company law, public international law, tax law, environmental law, and labor and industrial law. Each correct answer in the exam will earn candidates one mark, while incorrect responses will result in a deduction of 0.25 marks.
