About Surya Law Academy
Since 2012, Surya Law Academy (SLA) has been the gold standard for law entrance coaching in Northern India. We are not a franchise; we are a mentorship-driven institution where every student is a name, not a roll number.

"I founded SLA to break the 'factory model' of coaching. Large institutes have 100 students per batch; we cap ours at 30. Why? Because you cannot teach Legal Reasoning to a crowd—you have to mentor the individual. My personal promise is that I will know your strengths better than you do."
- 15,000+ Hours of classroom teaching experience
- Direct Mentor to AIR 1 (HPU), AIR 1 (Army Inst.), AIR 4 (PU 5-Year LL.B.), AIR 17 (CLAT) NLU Bangalore & AIR 5 PU LL.B. (3 Years)
Why Students Choose Us?
1. Super "40-Batch" Rule
We strictly limit batches to 40 students. This ensures daily 1-on-1 interaction during class, not just after it.
2. Chandigarh's Judiciary Hub
Located in the legal heart of the North, we have direct access to guest lectures from High Court Advocates and Judges.
3. Hybrid Flexibility
Missed a class? Sick? All offline classes are recorded and available on our app instantly. Never fall behind.
4. Result-Oriented Culture
We don't just teach; we track. Weekly performance graphs help us predict and fix your score before the exam.

Decoding the 2026 Law Entrance Landscape
Your path to a top NLU starts here. Understanding the unique structure of each exam is the first step. Here is a comparison of India's major law entrance tests, updated for the 2026 admission cycle.
🥇 Tier 1: The National Gateways
CLAT 2026 (UG)
Consortium of NLUs
- 26 NLUs
- 120 Qs (2 Hrs)
- Reading heavy
- SLA Focus: Deep comprehension.
AILET 2026 (BA LLB)
NLU Delhi Only
- NLU Delhi Only
- 150 Qs
- Logic heavy
- SLA Focus: Speed logic.
CUET-UG 2026
Central Univs
- Gen. Aptitude
- Speed focus
- 🚨 IMPORTANT:
- Legal subject removed.
🎯 SLA Strategy Insight:
While CLAT is the priority, AILET and CUET require distinct strategies. A single strategy is not enough—you need three distinct study plans, all provided by SLA's curriculum.
📍 Tier 2: Regional Opportunities
PU LLB (Panjab University)
Crucial for admission to UILS, PU. Focuses on Legal Aptitude and GK specific to the region.
SLAT / MH CET Law
SLAT is the gateway to Symbiosis. MH CET Law is essential for top colleges in Maharashtra (GLC, ILS).
Discipline is the Bridge
Between goals and accomplishment.
To ace CLAT, you don't just need to study; you need to master the logic behind the law. Our curriculum is designed to evolve your thinking from a student to a legal professional.
Our 5 Subject Pillars
⚖️ Legal Reasoning
Mastering legal maxims and applying principles to complex factual situations.
🧩 Logical Reasoning
Focus on Critical Reasoning: Syllogisms and strengthening/weakening arguments.
📖 English Language
Advanced Reading Comprehension (RC) and vocabulary for speed-reading.
🌍 Current Affairs
Monthly 'SLA Manthan' sessions covering National and International legal news.
📊 Quant Techniques
Data Interpretation (DI) focusing on accuracy and calculation speed.
+ Personalized Mentorship
Our 3-Phase Mastery Program

3

Execution Beats Theory
A plan is only as good as the action that follows.
For Chandigarh law aspirants, Panjab University is the ultimate destination. With its rich legacy and proximity to the High Court, PU offers a unique blend of academic excellence and real-world legal practice.
🏛️ The PU Legacy
- Top Tier Ranking: UILS consistently ranks among India's finest regional law institutes.
- Placement Power: Strong network with Chandigarh & Delhi based law firms and senior advocates.
- Judiciary Foundation: A significant percentage of North Indian judges are PU alumni.
- High ROI & Accessibility: World-class legal education at a fraction of the cost of private universities or NLUs.
⚠️ The Accuracy Challenge
Unlike common misconceptions, PU exams strictly enforce negative marking (0.25). At SLA, we train you to eliminate "wild guessing" and focus on the precision required to hit the Top 50 ranks.
- The 50:50 Formula: Your final merit is calculated using 50% Entrance Score + 50% Qualifying Exam (12th/Graduation) marks.
- Safe Zone: To secure a seat in the Chandigarh campus, aim for a raw score of 75+ in the entrance.
- Static Mastery: Over 40% of the GK section is dedicated to Indian History and Geography—areas often ignored by CLAT-only students.
Exam Blueprint (100 Marks Each)
PU 5-Year (BA/BCom LLB)
| Section | Weightage |
|---|
| GK & Current Affairs | 60 Marks |
| Legal Aptitude | 20 Marks |
| Mental Ability | 10 Marks |
| English Proficiency | 10 Marks |
PU 3-Year (LLB)
| Section | Weightage |
|---|
| Current Affairs & GK | 40 Marks |
| Legal Aptitude | 40 Marks |
| Reasoning & English | 20 Marks |

🎯 The SLA "PU-Mastery" System
Constitution Mastery
Dominate the **30-mark weightage** using memory hacks for Articles.
Static "Sniper" GK
Targeted modules for History & Geography facts specific to PU.
OMR Tactical Drills
**10+ simulated offline tests** to perfect bubbling speed.
● 85%+ SLA students secure their first choice: UILS Chandigarh.
PART 1: The Core Foundation
1. FOUNDATION: Reading Speed
Practice 60-90 minutes of daily reading (Editorials, non-fiction) to rapidly identify the Inference and Tone of every passage.
2. TOOLKIT: Focused Mastery
- **Legal:** Apply only the Principle given.
- **GK:** Consistent daily reading & monthly revision.
- **Logical:** Master Critical Reasoning.
3. FUEL: Endurance & Focus
Consistency over Intensity. Ensure proper sleep (7-8 hrs) and short, frequent breaks. Never make wild guesses—only educated ones.
PART 2: Execution & Fine-Tuning
4. VEHICLE: Mock Tests & Analysis (The Key)
**Analysis is more valuable than the mock itself.** Spend 3-4 hours after each test categorizing mistakes:
- ❌ **Conceptual Errors:** Re-study the entire topic.
- 🤔 **Silly Mistakes:** Note the error pattern.
- ⏱️ **Timing Mistakes:** Adjust your time plan.
5. THE ENGINE: Time Allocation (The 120 Minute Battle Plan)
| Section | Target Time |
|---|
| Current Affairs & GK | ~10 min |
| Quantitative Techniques | ~15 min |
| English Language | ~20-25 min |
| Logical Reasoning | ~25-30 min |
| Legal Reasoning | ~30-35 min |
❌ Delaying Mock Tests
Why: Thinking you must finish the syllabus first.
✅ Fix: Start mocks from Month 3. They are learning tools, not just tests.
❌ Ignoring Negative Marking
Why: Guessing answers costs 0.25 marks.
✅ Fix: Only attempt when confident (eliminate at least 2 options). Unattempted = 0 harm.
❌ Burnout & Inconsistency
Why: 16 hours one day, 2 hours the next kills momentum.
✅ Fix: Consistency beats intensity. Stick to 6-8 quality hours daily.
❌ Too Many Sources
Why: Juggling 5 books confuses rather than educates.
✅ Fix: Choose 1-2 primary, reliable resources per section. Master them completely.
❌ Skipping Revision
Why: Concepts fade without repetition (especially GK).
✅ Fix: Use a **70% preparation, 30% revision** cycle weekly.
❌ Weak Time Management
Why: Spending 80 minutes on any single section is exam disaster.
✅ Fix: Adhere to strict sectional limits (e.g., Legal: 35 min, GK: 10 min).
🎯 The SLA Advantage: Turning Mistakes into Merit
Mistakes are inevitable, but poor analysis is optional. At **Surya Law Academy**, our structured coaching directly addresses these pitfalls:
- Expert Mock Analysis: We provide detailed, one-on-one analysis to isolate *Conceptual, Silly, and Timing* errors.
- Structured Timetable: Our weekly plans enforce the consistency that beats burnout.
- Curated Material: You get **one definitive source** for every section, eliminating the confusion of too many books.
