The tier-1 colleges are the best among the existing NLUs that include NLSIU Bangalore, NALSAR Hyderabad, and WBNUJS Kolkata. These colleges provide the best placement offers and internships. These colleges have expert faculty that can enhance your skills in the related fields along with the exposure of moot courts with universities like Harvard University, Yale University, and many others.

Now apart from tier-1 colleges, NLIU Bhopal, NLU Jodhpur, GNLU Gujarat are also good in terms of faculty, internships, and placement opportunities. NLU Delhi is a reputed college and has a locational advantage. 

Among the new NLUs, NLU Mumbai is quite promising and maintains a consistently good record.

But other than the above-mentioned colleges, other NLUs are not that good and you will not have the exposure and internship opportunities.

My elder sister is from this institute, so I think I can answer your question.

Legal Methods is the most difficult of the five subjects you'll study in the first semester. It covers a wide range of issues, including summary writing, finding ratio and obiter dictum, and legislative interpretation. You can read the article “The Case of the Speluncean Explorers” if you want. It's pointless to read the other materials before attending college lectures because the paper is purely application-based. Every year, entirely new excerpts are picked up for the paper. 

You can read the first 3–4 chapters of Ratanlal and Dhirajlal for Torts. After a few lectures, you'll figure out the rest.

The syllabus for the other disciplines is primarily lecture and module-based, so there's no use in doing anything ahead of time. However, for Pol Sc, any material on theorists such as Hobbes, Locke, and Rousseau would be helpful.

Having to know some people studying at both these institutes, I can say for a fact that if you want the original and the true CLAT experience then NALSAR would be the better option. But overall NLU-D is much better. They make the students academically strong and industry-ready. 

NLU- D stands out due of several reasons: -

• NLU-D has established its name in the top institutes in a span of 10 years. It will no doubt beat NALSAR one day too.
• It has a fantastic faculty and infrastructure. 
• Moreover, NLU- D receives funds from the Delhi government to maintain the facilities provided to the students. Therefore the facilities provided are world-class.
• NLU- D conducts national and international competitions and pays all the expenses of the participants
• Being in Delhi, it receives better industrial exposure. 
• This helps in great internship opportunities. It also has guest lecturers visiting continuously from the High Court, Supreme Court and the Parliament.
• It is considered as the leader in the fields of litigation and other legal studies.

NLU-D is the better option of the two considering placement, faculty, academics and infrastructure. Both NALSAR and NLU-D are one of the most reputed Law colleges of India. Both the institutes have some advantages and disadvantages when compared to each other. Both of these institutes are highly rated. So choose according to your preferences.

NLU Delhi has been ranked 2 by NIRF and the Symbiosis Law School has been ranked 8 by NIRF. Faculty members at both institutes are accomplished and award-winning with names such as Dr. Anuradha Binnuri, Dr. Atmaram Fakirba Shelke, and others at Symbiosis and Prof. Anju Tyagi and Dr. Amita Punj at NLU. There are about 14-20 faculty members at these institutes.

Apart from this students are selected on the basis of merit of 12th and the respective entrance exams of these institutes, i.e. SLAT for Symbiosis and AILET for NLU Delhi.
