AILET 2027 4 Week Study Plan Before 13 Dec

If AILET 2027 is on 13 December 2026 (as reported; confirm on the NLU Delhi website), the last four weeks run from Monday 16 November to Sunday 13 December. Spend them on three things in this order: Logical Reasoning (70 questions), English comprehension (50), and a tight General Knowledge routine (30), with a full mock every four to five days.

What the paper rewards

The BA LLB paper is 150 questions in 120 minutes, one mark each, with 0.25 deducted for a wrong answer. English has 50 questions, GK 30 and Logical Reasoning 70. That means nearly half the marks sit in one section, and the section is made of short argument passages, not puzzles you can brute force. Your plan should give Logical Reasoning the largest block of every day. If you are also sitting CLAT on 6 December, read the combined plan in preparing for CLAT and AILET together first, because the weeks overlap.

Before week 1: 1 to 15 November

Use these days to fix gaps, not to start from zero. Take one timed mock cold and write down your three weakest question types. Check the application window and admit card dates on the official site: the application deadline was reported as 10 November and the admit card around 30 November. Settle your reading source (one newspaper editorial a day) and one current affairs source, and stop adding new ones.

Week 1 (16 to 22 November): rebuild accuracy

• Logical Reasoning, 90 minutes a day: do passages untimed first, naming the question type (assumption, strengthen, weaken, inference, conclusion, flaw, parallel reasoning) before you answer. Keep an error log with one line per mistake saying why the right option was right.
• English, 45 minutes: two passages a day, timed at about 8 minutes each. After each one, write the author’s main point in one sentence without looking.
• GK, 30 minutes: the last six months of current affairs, written as short notes you can reread. Add static GK twice a week (international organisations, constitutional bodies, awards).
• End of week: one full 150 question mock on Saturday, then a long review on Sunday.

Week 2 (23 to 29 November): add speed

Now introduce time limits. Aim to finish each Logical Reasoning passage with its questions in roughly 90 seconds per question on average, because 70 questions cannot take more than about 55 minutes if English and GK are to get fair time. Keep 30 minutes of GK, but switch from reading to self-testing: cover the notes and recall.

• Do two sectional drills of 35 Logical Reasoning questions in 30 minutes each, on separate days.
• Read one long editorial daily and note any unfamiliar word with its use in the sentence.
• Take a full mock midweek and another on the weekend. Compare the section scores, not only the total.

Week 3 (30 November to 6 December): sharpen the weak types

By now your error log shows a pattern. Spend the first half of each day on the two or three question types that keep costing marks. If you are also writing CLAT on Sunday 6 December, lighten this week: one short AILET sectional on 30 November and 1 December, then switch to CLAT-specific work. The admit card for AILET is expected around 30 November, so download it, check your centre and plan the route.

Week 4 (7 to 13 December): consolidate, do not cram

• 7 to 9 December: two full mocks, one in the exam slot (2 pm to 4 pm) so your body clock is trained for that time.
• 10 and 11 December: only error log review, GK revision notes and one light sectional.
• 12 December: rest, pack your bag, reread your attempt plan. No new material.
• 13 December: the exam. The AILET 2027 exam day guide covers the day itself.

A daily template that works

On a normal weekday with about four hours: 90 minutes Logical Reasoning, 45 minutes English, 30 minutes GK, 30 minutes error log review, and the rest for a sectional or reading. On a mock day, take the test in the morning of the slot you will face, then review for at least as long as the test took.

Using mocks properly

A mock is only useful if you review it. For each wrong or guessed question, record the section, the type, whether you misread, misreasoned or ran out of time, and what you will do differently. Lexfolio’s AILET 2027 mock tests are 3 full papers of 150 questions each, following the same section split (English Q1 to Q50, GK Q51 to Q80, Logical Reasoning Q81 to Q150), with explanations and an OMR sheet. Whichever mocks you use, do not take more than you can review in depth.

What to drop in the last month

• New coaching material or new books. Finish what you have.
• Mathematics. The BA LLB paper has no quantitative section.
• Memorising obscure static GK. Weight your GK effort toward the last 12 months of current affairs.

Attempt rules to settle now

Because of the 0.25 penalty, a blind guess among four options has a slightly negative expected value, while eliminating two options makes a guess worth taking. Decide your rule in advance: attempt anything where you can remove at least two options, skip the rest on the first pass, and return if time remains. Fix an order too, for example English, then Logical Reasoning, then GK, or whichever your mocks show you finish fastest.

All dates here are as reported by news and coaching sources. Confirm the exam date, time, pattern and admit card schedule on the NLU Delhi website before you plan around them.

How to handle a bad week

Illness, travel or a poor mock will disturb at least one week. Do not try to repay lost hours by doubling the next day. Instead, drop the lowest-value item (usually extra GK reading) and protect the Logical Reasoning block and your mock review. A plan that survives a bad week is better than a perfect plan that breaks.

A note on GK for AILET

With 30 questions, GK is worth a fifth of the paper, and it responds well to short, repeated revision. Keep one notebook for the last twelve months of current affairs, sorted by theme (law and judiciary, government schemes, international affairs, science, sports, awards), and one page for static topics. Revise by covering the answers and writing them from memory. Use questions you get wrong in mocks to decide what to add.

Checkpoints that tell you the plan is working

• By the end of week 2, you can finish a Logical Reasoning set of 35 questions in about 30 minutes without panic.
• By the end of week 3, your wrong answers are mostly from genuinely hard questions, not careless misreads.
• By week 4, your section order and attempt rule are fixed, and you no longer experiment with them.
