Candidates can file objections to the provisional answer key as soon as it is available. A committee of subject area experts evaluates the candidates' complaints. If the objections are deemed to be genuine, the committee will make appropriate revisions to the provisional answer key.
These modifications are incorporated in the final answer key, which is released two to three days following the tentative answer key. The following are the steps to raise an objection to the CLAT answer key 2024:
Step 1: Visit the official CLAT website and log in with your registered mobile number and date of birth/password.
Step 2: Look for the 'Submit Objections' link.
Step 3: After that, you can select the sort of objection they want to raise under the 'Submit Objections' button.
Step 4: Provide the reason for objection with specific information and a conclusion.
Step 5: Once done, submit the objection.
Note: Each objection costs around INR 1,000. The fee is refunded if the objection is valid and sustained. Objections that are submitted without paying the fees will not be entertained.
Candidates should always use the approved marking method to determine their grades. According to the official CLAT test format, each question is worth one mark. However, each incorrect response will take -0.25 points. Unanswered questions incur no penalty.
Candidates can use the following formula to determine CLAT scores:
Total number of correct answers - (Total number of wrong answers X 0.25)
For example: If a candidate marks 70 right answers and 20 wrong ones, the overall score will be:
CLAT marks = 70 - (20 X 0.25) = 70 - 5 = 65 marks.
The CLAT 2024 answer key will be released a few hours after the test concludes on December 3, 2023.
