What is the CUET exam pattern?
CUET (UG) is a computer-based test structured into Language sections, Domain-specific subjects, and a General Test. In recent cycles candidates could choose up to five papers, each with 50 questions to be attempted, and each paper is 60 minutes long. Marking is +5 for a correct answer, −1 for a wrong answer and 0 for an unattempted one. The test is offered in multiple Indian languages. Because NTA has revised the structure repeatedly, confirm the exact number of allowed papers and the subject list for your cycle on the official site.
