My aim was clear: finish CLAT and Class 12 in one go and avoid a drop year. The teachers at the Lucknow centre &#8211; Sadaat Sir, Neeta Ma\u2019am, and others &#8211; built my base with absolute conceptual clarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Law Prep:<\/strong> Which were your strongest subjects?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Shantanu:<\/strong> English and Legal Reasoning. I read regularly, which helped a lot. But even in my strongest subjects, my mock scores dropped often. Instead of panicking, I used low scores as motivation to work harder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Law Prep:<\/strong> How did being part of the Super 30 Batch help you?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Shantanu:<\/strong> Super 30 gave extra practice, deeper explanations for tough topics, and excellent GK classes.
