About The CUET

The Common University Entrance Test (CUET) is a standardized exam for students seeking admission to undergraduate programs in central universities and other participating institutions in India. CUET aims to simplify the admissions process by assessing candidates in various subjects, ensuring a fair and transparent selection based on their performance.

CUET is a way to get into respected central universities and other participating colleges in India. It tests various skills, such as language skills, subject knowledge, and general aptitude. This helps you build a strong academic base that can be useful for other entrance exams.
