In terms of the exam pattern, CUET UG 2025 will be conducted in a Computer-Based Test (CBT) mode. Each subject paper will feature 50 mandatory multiple-choice questions (MCQs). Candidates will receive +5 marks for each correct answer, while a 1-mark penalty applies for each wrong answer, emphasizing the importance of accuracy under the negative marking system.
What This Means for Students
The shift in dates gives students an extra few days to prepare, which can be crucial for last-minute revisions. Additionally, early access to city details through the intimation slip allows better logistical planning—especially for those traveling from other states or regions. With a standardized CBT format, candidates are encouraged to familiarize themselves with online testing environments to perform well.
