helo,
First I would recommend you to go for CLAT (Common Law Admission Test) based on your 12th as you are sure about your future and want to go for law after graduation.

ELIGIBILITY-

# For 5 year BA LLB course, candidate should be 10+2 pass from a recognised board.

# For general category 12th class % needed - 50%

# For SC/STs 12th class % needed - 45%

Age Criteria:

#General and OBC Candidates - 20 years

#SC/ST candidates - 22 years

Or else you can go with subjects like pub ad. and sociology if you want to opt for law after BA.

Gudluck!!

In order to do LLB course in Government law university as well as in Private Colleges which offers this course,you will have to appear in CLAT(Common Law Entrance Exam).This is a common entrance exam in order to take admission in this course.

The eligibility you will required in order to appear in this exam is as below :-

Educational qualification :- You should be 10+2/Intermediate pass out in any stream from recognized board/university.

Age :-
-->>Your age should not be above 20 years - If belong from the General/OBC category.

Marks(in 10+2) details is as follows :-

-->>If you will be from General Category then your marks should be 50%.
-->>if you will be SC/ST/OBC then your minimum marks should be 45%.

Exam Pattern of CLAT :-

-->>Total questions will be 200.

-->>Total duration of this exam will be 2 hours.

These Sections from which the questions are asked :-

• Numerical ability.

Thus,if you fulfill the above criteria,then you are eligible to appear in this exam and take admission in this course.There is no need to take admission in B.A Course.

You don't need to choose any specific subjects in Bachelor of Arts to apply for LLB after that. Any graduation degree is sufficient to apply for the LLB course. Therefore you are free to choose the subjects for Bachelor of Arts course.

However if you have not yet applied for the Bachelor of Arts, may I suggest that you take the integrated LLB course. It can be pursued after completing 12th standard. The course offered in integrated LLB is called BA LLB.

This is better than doing first BA and then applying for the LLB course. You can directly take admission for BA LLB course which has the duration of 5 years. This way you will end up saving one year.

Most students who want to do LLB prefer doing integrated course. Both LLB 5 years and LLB 3 years hold same merit. You don't have to worry about that. To apply for BA LLB you will have to appear for Common Law Admission Test (CLAT).
