CLAT stands for Common Law Admission Test. The eligibility criteria for appearing in the CLAT exam says that the candidate must have passed minimum 12th class from any recognized school/college with minimum of 45% marks. As you have already completed your B.Com, so you are eligible for the CLAT exam. One more thing is that your age must not be more than 20 years at the time of appearing CLAT. There is two years age relaxation for SC/St candidates.
