How is the AILET score and percentile/rank calculated?

Hi there, The process of calculation of rank is very simple as it depends on the marks you obtained in the AILET exam. Each question carries 1 mark and makes it a total of 150 marks. Now, the candidate scoring the topmost marks are given the ranks accordingly. Also the no. of seats make the ranks as well. The seats are also reserved and thus seats have to be distributed accordingly.Also, there may be candidates scoring same marks thus they share the same rank jointly. Also the exam is taken only for NLU Delhi thus there is no preference list as such and the candidates are given the seats based on their ranks. Also, a candidate leaving the seat shall make a vacancy for the waitlisted candidates. AiLET initially releases the provisional allotment list and waitlist. Apart from this, there is no formula as to calculate the ranks. Your marks define your rank and seat at NLU Delhi.

Hi, All India Law Entrance Test is the entrance exam for National Law Univesity. The exam is divided into five sections. All the five sections have a total of 150 multiple choice questions carrying one mark each. There is no negative marking for the wrong answer. So, on the basis of total correct answers, final scores are calculated. These scores form the basis of rank. Since the exam is only for admission to NLU-Delhi, there is no question of preferences. Since there is negative marking, most of the students get same scores. The question which arises is how is rank distributed among students of the same score. The first tie breaker is marks in legal section. If two or more students have same marks, the student with a higher mark in the legal section would be ranked higher. Hope this helps.

AILET or All India Law Entrance Test is NLU Delhi law entrance paper which has to be attempted in a time limit of 90 minutes, I.e., 1 hour and 30 minutes. There are 150 multiple choice questions which includes five subjects - English (35 marks), Legal Reasoning (35 marks), Logical Reasoning (35 marks), General Knowledge (35 marks) and Mathematics (10 Marks). Rank is given marks wise only and if two candidates receive same marks then marks of legal reasoning are seen and ranks are arranged accordingly. The ranks are closed at 120-130 (inclusive of vacancy). In case there is one seat available and two applicants with same marks are there, then their class 12th percentage would be taken into account while granting admission to the one who has better than the other one. Good luck.
