The Law entrance examinations are conducted on a national/state or university level for admission to LLB course. The candidates with graduation in any discipline with a minimum of 45% marks are eligible for the law entrance examinations. There are various law entrance examinations which will be held every year in different dates. They are

CLAT – May 2017
AILET – 07-05-2017
CEE Kerala LLB 3 year - September
AP LAWCET – May
Christ University Law Entrance Test - May
AIL Entrance Test – June
Lloyd Law Entrance Test (LET) - May
BVP New Law College - June

As you are interested in pursuing LLB course, so there are two options for you. You may join LLB after 12th standard which is called BA LLB and other is you may join after graduation. The BA LLB course after 12th will be of 5 years long and the duration of LLB after graduation will be of 3 years. You have to appear for CLAT entrance examination which will decide your selection in law colleges. So, it depends on you that when you want to appear for the examination as both the ways are open to you. And there is no age criteria for the examination, hence you can appear for it whenever you want.

You can apply for entrance exam like CLAT after completion of your degree. There are two kind of law courses on the basis of class 12th and another on the basis of degree.

Hence, you will be eligible for LLB after graduation. Admission will be on the basis of performance in the written exam and seats are allotted through counselling.

According to my opinion, you must opt for the LLB course after the completion of your Graduation course.
Candidates those who have completed their Graduation in any discipline form a recognised University with a minimum of 55% of marks in it are eligible to opt for the LLB course.
