Understanding the AIBE Exam
The All India Bar Examination (AIBE) is a national-level exam. It tests a candidate's basic knowledge of law. The Bar Council of India conducts this exam. Passing AIBE is compulsory for all law graduates who want to get a "Certificate of Practice." This certificate allows them to work as lawyers in India. The exam covers various law subjects taught during a law degree. It is usually an open-book exam, meaning candidates can refer to books and notes during the test, but it is important to check the latest rules on the official website for any changes.
The revised schedule helps students prepare better for this important exam. They have enough time to plan their studies and complete the application steps without rushing. This change shows the BCI's effort to support aspiring lawyers.
