I got only 58% in 12th. Will I get admission in NLU if I clear CLAT this year? Or will they just ignore me based on my 12th results?

Admission to NLUs is conducted based on CLAT scores only. Marks obtained in 12th exam are not considered for admission. However candidates must meet the minimum qualifying marks criteria (45% for OBC/Gen/PWD and 40% for SC/ST)
