If you’re choosing between CUET LLB and MH CET Law, the first question most aspirants ask is simple: Which one is easier? The second question is even more practical: Which one is more scoring?
The honest answer: neither exam is “easy” in an absolute sense. But they are easy in different ways depending on your strengths, how you read, how fast you solve, and how well you manage accuracy under time pressure.
In this blog, we’ll break down CUET LLB vs MH CET Law in a practical, student-friendly way—difficulty, scoring potential, question style, and the kind of preparation that works best for each.
| Factor | CUET LLB | MH CET Law (3-Year) |
|---|---|---|
| Primary focus | Reading-heavy aptitude + reasoning + GK | Speed + accuracy across mixed aptitude sections |
| Question feel | More comprehension-led, option traps common | More direct, but time pressure is higher |
| Most scoring for | Strong readers + good elimination skills | Fast test-takers + strong accuracy |
| Risk area | Overthinking in legal reasoning/RC | Silly errors due to speed |
| Best prep style | Mock + deep analysis + reading practice | Sectional tests + timed drills + accuracy control |
“Easier” depends on what you naturally do well.
“More scoring” means you can consistently maximise attempts with good accuracy. Again, the answer depends on your style in both CUET Law and MHCET Law.
Let’s compare the sections that matter most from a scoring lens.
| Section | CUET LLB – Difficulty & Scoring | MH CET Law – Difficulty & Scoring |
|---|---|---|
| Legal Reasoning | Often principle-fact based; scoring if you follow a method and don’t assume extra facts | Usually more direct, scoring if you practise standard patterns and maintain speed |
| Logical Reasoning | Can be time-taking if you overthink; scoring with elimination + pattern awareness | High scoring with timed practice; speed is the main differentiator |
| English / Comprehension | Reading-heavy; scoring if your passage speed is strong | Generally manageable; scoring, but can be error-prone in a speed rush |
| General Knowledge / Current Affairs | Can decide your rank; needs consistent weekly revision | Important: strong GK can become your scoring cushion |
| Math / Quant (if present) | Varies; avoid spending too long if it’s not your strength | Often basic-level scoring if you practise shortcuts + accuracy |
