Logical Reasoning
IMPORTANT: Focus on Critical Reasoning in Modern CLAT
The official CLAT syllabus confirms that Logical Reasoning is primarily about Critical Reasoning. You will be presented with short passages (arguments) and asked to analyze their structure, strengths, weaknesses, assumptions, and implications.
Traditional analytical puzzles (like seating arrangements, blood relations, complex syllogisms, coding-decoding) are either very rare or entirely absent from the modern CLAT. Focus your efforts on argument analysis and logical deduction from text.
