The National Testing Agency (NTA) has announced important changes in the CUET UG (Common University Entrance Test-Undergraduate) examination for 2024. Here’s a summary of the major updates:

Hybrid Mode:

  • The authorities will now conduct the exam in a hybrid format, with both computer-based testing (CBT) and pen-and-paper (OMR sheets) options available.
  • It aims to provide greater accessibility, especially to candidates from rural areas, who can choose examination centers closer to their homes.

Reduced Subject options:

  • Candidates will now have the option to choose a maximum of 6 subjects instead of 10.
  • This decision is based on data that shows that most of the candidates have chosen 5 or fewer subjects and have simplified the exam centre allotment.

Use of OMR Sheet:
