Is the judiciary exam data on Law Maker official?
GeneralWe source exam dates and vacancies from official state PSC or High Court notifications and link directly to the source. Always cross-check with the official notification before making decisions, since notifications can be postponed or amended by court order.
Can I get an email reminder for an exam date?
GeneralYes. With a paid plan (Student or Aspirant) you can set a one-time reminder on any exam from the Judiciary Tracker, choosing Prelims or Mains and how many days before to be notified. You get exactly one email per reminder, never repeated alerts.
How are mock tests scored?
Mock TestsPrelims MCQ tests are scored by our server the moment you submit, with the paper's own marking scheme, including negative marking where the real exam has it. Correct answers are never sent to your browser beforehand. After submitting you see your score, accuracy by subject, every answer with its explanation, and your rank and percentile once enough students have taken the paper.
How are mock tests organized if I'm preparing for a specific state exam?
Mock TestsTests are grouped by exam stream, a recurring category like a specific state's judicial service or a general multi-state bucket for subjects like CPC and Constitutional Law that stay relevant regardless of any single state's exam cycle.
How are the questions written and checked?
Mock TestsEach question is written against the official text: the bare Act, the judgment itself, or the Gazette and the government source for current affairs. A second reviewer then answers it without seeing the key and checks every section number and citation before it goes live. When the law changes or a judgment is referred to a larger Bench, the affected live questions are corrected or withdrawn.
Are the papers available in Hindi?
Mock TestsYes, for judiciary and prosecution papers. State judiciary and UP APO papers can be switched between English and Hindi on every question, as in the printed papers; language sections stay in their own language, and the few questions without a Hindi version yet are shown in English. The Hindi uses the official Hindi terms of each Act, and the English version prevails if the two ever differ.
How do rank and percentile work?
Mock TestsYour score is compared with every other student's first attempt on the same paper, so retakes never inflate the field. Rank appears once 10 students have taken the paper. Each exam page also has a leaderboard of average scores; you can hide your name from your dashboard at any time.
Can I build my own test from the question bank?
Mock TestsYes. On the Practice page choose an exam (or the whole bank), one or more subjects, 10 to 100 questions, a difficulty, a timer and negative marking. Questions come only from practice sets you can open, so free papers are enough to start. Questions you have not met before come first. Practice tests are scored like any paper but never ranked.
What is the mistake book?
Mock TestsEvery question you get wrong or leave unanswered, in any mock test or practice test, goes into your mistake book, sorted by subject. Retest them whenever you like; a question leaves the book once you answer it correctly twice in a row, or when you mark it learnt. You can also save any question while reviewing a paper you have submitted, and practise your saved list later.
Do you have previous year question papers?
Mock TestsYes. The Previous Year Papers section links to the official question papers and answer keys on each conducting body's own website (High Courts, Public Service Commissions, the Bar Council of India, NLU Delhi), says which questions the final key deleted, and breaks each paper down by subject. Where the body published the full question paper, you can also take it as a free timed test in the exam's own time and marking, scored against the body's final key; questions the key deleted are left out.
Where can I read the bare Acts?
Mock TestsIn the Bare Acts library (/bare-acts): the Constitution, the BNS, BNSS and BSA, the CPC, the Contract Act and over 100 other central Acts, each section on its own page with the official footnotes. The text is taken from the current India Code file of the Legislative Department and checked against it; each page links to the official file and says when it was last updated. BNS, BNSS and BSA sections show the matching IPC, CrPC or Evidence Act section from the NCRB correspondence table, and the old codes are kept for reference. The State local laws that judiciary exams test (rent, revenue, courts, excise and municipal Acts) are there too, State by State, from each State's official copy, and each says how current that copy is.
Do you have summaries of landmark judgments?
Mock TestsYes. The Landmark Judgments library (/judgments) covers the Supreme Court cases that judiciary, CLAT and AIBE papers ask about most. Each page gives the facts, the questions before the Court, what the majority held, why the case matters and passages in the Court's own words, each linked to its page in the official judgment on sci.gov.in. Pages also link to the sections and articles the case interprets (with the BNS, BNSS or BSA equivalent of an old provision), to the cases it overrules or follows, and to practice questions that ask about it. Every digest is written from the judgment itself; read the judgment before citing it.
Can I get notified when new questions are added to a test?
Mock TestsYes. Click the bell icon on any mock test to subscribe. You'll get an email the next time real new questions are added to that specific test.
What's the AI Study Assistant, and how accurate is it?
Mock TestsIt's part of the paid plans (Student and Aspirant), for asking legal doubts and getting an instant, exam-focused answer. It's a study aid, not a substitute for verifying specifics against the bare act, since AI responses can occasionally be inaccurate.
Who are the mentors?
MentorsMentors are retired judges, senior judicial officers, or practicing advocates. Each mentor is verified before being marked Verified and listed publicly.
How do I book a mentor session?
MentorsVisit the Mentors page, log in, pick an available time slot and send your request; you can pay from the same card or later from your dashboard. A slot is reserved the moment you request it, so two students can never hold the same slot.
I'm a retired judge or practicing advocate. How do I become a mentor?
MentorsApply on the Become a Mentor page (lawmaker.in/mentors/apply) with your details and a proof of enrolment or service. We verify your credentials before listing you, and you set your own session price and availability. Applicants with a LegalFirms.in profile are reviewed first.
How do I post an internship?
InternshipsAny organization can post a free internship listing. Every listing is reviewed before it goes live, usually within 24 hours.
How do I list my coaching institute?
CoachingVisit the Coaching Institutes page and use the List your institute link, or email join@lawmaker.in directly. Listings show the institute's public details (website, phone, address); to correct or add details, write to join@lawmaker.in from the institute's own email.
Where do coaching institute details come from?
CoachingFrom public sources such as the institute's own website and map listing. Law Maker does not rank institutes or take fees for placement in the list; check fees and results with the institute directly.
What's the difference between a single test, an exam pass and a plan?
BillingA single test purchase unlocks that one test permanently. An exam pass unlocks every premium paper of one exam (for example DJS, RJS or AIBE) for its period, including papers added during it; a pass for a state judiciary exam also covers the general judiciary subject sets. A plan (Student or Aspirant) gives access to every premium test on the platform for its period, plus the AI Study Assistant; plans are one-time payments and do not renew on their own.
Can I pay via UPI instead of a card?
BillingYes. Payments run through Razorpay's checkout, which accepts UPI as well as cards and net banking.
Do I get a proper invoice for tax purposes?
BillingYes. Every payment generates a GST invoice available under My Bills, with our GSTIN and a full tax breakdown.
Can I get a refund?
BillingYes, in specific circumstances. See our Refund Policy for mock tests, exam passes, plans and mentor sessions. Exam passes are not refundable once bought, except for a payment error reported within 7 days.
