Are you a part of the most productive CLAT

community of the country?
Why you should join our Telegram community?

We at https://t.me/divyakumargarg are creating the most productive CLAT community of the country. If
you’re a serious CLAT aspirant, we urge you to become a part. The Telegram Channel’s initiatives
substantially boost the CLAT preparation. The channel has become a 24x7 platform where CLAT
aspirants come together, help each other and get helped in the process. We aspire to #LetsCLATit
together, and we know that we will do it. The following are the initiatives of our channel. They are
ABSOLUTELY FREE and shall remain free forever.

1. Daily Dose – 6 AM – 3 Current Affairs Articles selected after a careful review of the previous days’
newspaper that cover the High Potential Topics of CLAT.

2. Daily RC – 9 AM – Reading Comprehension passage, curated according to difficulty level and with the
view to ensure all round language exposure of CLAT aspirant to gradually improve the Comprehension
ability to boost the overall CLAT score.

3. Daily Vocab Dose – 12 AM – 5 vocabulary words that a CLAT aspirant must know to understand the
language of the tests better. Vocabulary is not learnt mugging up a word list, but by consistently learning
a set of words each day. Our channel members have learnt over 500 words since the initiatives’ inception.

4. Closer to CLAT chart – 11.40 PM – An unique initiative where CLAT aspirants pledge the number of
hours they will study for CLAT and cross them in the reverse order to track their performance and ensure
peer review. Learners claim that it becomes addictive when followed for a few days and is the most
powerful solution to inconsistency.

5. Important Notes – CLAT aspirants upload notes prepared by them on various important topics to create
the biggest repository of CLAT specific and original notes in India.

..and this is not it. We have regular motivation, memes, (no entry fee) competition and important
