Eligibility: Who Can Apply?
Candidates must have passed or be appearing for Class 12 (10+2) from a recognised board with a minimum of 45% marks . SC/ST candidates need 40% .
There is no upper age limit. Final-year students can apply provisionally; admission is confirmed only after producing proof of passing with the required marks .
SLAT scores are accepted at four Symbiosis Law Schools: Pune, Noida, Hyderabad, and Nagpur .
The Two-Part Fee: Test Fee + Programme Fee
SLAT 2027 requires two separate payments. Candidates often miss the second one.
| Fee Component | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Test fee | ₹2,550 per test | Pay separately for each test date you select |
| Programme registration fee | ₹1,000 per programme | Pay for each law school/programme you apply to |
Both amounts exclude applicable government taxes . If you attempt both test dates and apply to two programmes, you pay: (₹2,550 × 2) + (₹1,000 × 2) = ₹7,100 plus taxes.
The test fee is non-refundable and non-transferable .
Exam Pattern: What to Expect
SLAT 2027 is a computer-based test with 60 questions in 60 minutes. There are five sections, each carrying 12 questions :
| Section | Questions |
|---|---|
| Logical Reasoning | 12 |
| Legal Reasoning | 12 |
| Analytical Reasoning | 12 |
| Reading Comprehension | 12 |
| General Knowledge | 12 |
| Total | 60 |
There is no negative marking for incorrect answers . Every question carries 1 mark.
One Test or Two? How the "Best of Two" Works
Candidates can appear for both SLAT tests. The higher score is considered for the final percentile calculation. There is no normalization between the two tests—the official bulletin states that a statistically tested process ensures question spread and difficulty are balanced across both papers .
Attempting both tests gives you a second chance at a higher score, but it also means paying the ₹2,550 test fee twice.
