Which Subject is Tough in CLAT? 

If you’re preparing for law entrance exams, you’ve probably asked: which subject is tough in CLAT? It’s one of the most common questions students ask, and the answer depends on your strengths and background. However, most students consider the Logical Reasoning and Quantitative Techniques sections to be the toughest in CLAT. That’s because these areas demand conceptual clarity, quick problem-solving, and sharp analytical thinking.

So again — which subject is tough in CLAT? For science students, Legal Reasoning may feel unfamiliar. For humanities students, Quantitative Techniques often becomes a hurdle. Each subject brings its own challenges, but with the right strategy, none of them are unbeatable. The real key lies in how smartly and consistently you prepare across all sections.

In this blog, we’ll not only decode the toughest CLAT subjects but also show you how CLATapult helps students master even their weakest subjects with confidence.

Why Logical Reasoning and Quantitative Techniques Feel the Toughest

Among the five subjects tested in CLAT — English Language, Current Affairs (including GK), Legal Reasoning, Logical Reasoning, and Quantitative Techniques — the last two tend to make students sweat the most.

Logical Reasoning

Students often struggle here because:

• It requires quick comprehension of dense paragraphs.

• You need to find assumptions, flaws, or conclusions under time pressure.

• It’s less about memory and more about mental flexibility.

This section accounts for 22–26 questions, and mistakes can cost dearly. Without constant practice and exposure to tricky question formats, this becomes a mental minefield.

Quantitative Techniques

This section involves:

• Interpreting charts, graphs, and numerical data

• Applying arithmetic and algebraic concepts

• Solving word problems with speed and accuracy

Even though it includes just 10–13 questions, it can break your momentum if you’re not confident with numbers.

So if you’re still wondering which subject is tough in CLAT, chances are your answer lies in either Quant or Logic, especially if you’re not giving them consistent practice.
