The aspirant should study the graduation course (like B.A or B.Com) first after 12th standard. Because the eligibility to study the LLB course is a pass in any graduation with 45% marks from a recognized university. There will be an entrance examination for the admission to the course like CLAT. The duration of the course is 3 years. After graduation, you have to apply to the Law Colleges for the admission to the LLB course. The course is available in many Law Colleges in India.
