The full form of CUET is the Common University Entrance Test, which was earlier known as the Central Universities Common Entrance Test. It is an all-India Test, which is conducted by the National Testing Agency for admission to various doctorate, Postgraduate, Undergraduate, Integrated Postgraduate, Diploma, Certification courses and Research Programmes in 45 Central Universities of India. The scores of CUET are also accepted by various state universities and deemed universities. 

As per the information shared by the NTA, the common university entrance test consists of objective type questions which will be in 13 languages including Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Gujarati, Odia, Bengali, Assamese, Punjabi, English, Hindi and Urdu. 

The CUET-UG aims to provide students with a balanced challenge by adjusting the difficulty level of questions to ensure fairness and manageability. This adjustment allows students to choose their preferred exam location. As part of the CUET-UG's restructuring, students will only be allowed to take a maximum of six papers.

For the third edition of the CUET UG exam, the National Testing Agency is introducing significant changes. It is expected that the process of score normalization, which was previously a common practice, may be eliminated. Additionally, the duration of the exam is likely to be shortened. Top officials have stated that the NTA is exploring a hybrid mode of testing that combines OMR sheets and computer-based testing.

According to the news agency, ANI, the CUET UG 2024 registration process will be started today, February 26. 

This year, the NTA is conducting the entrance exam in hybrid mode. The idea behind conducting CUET UG in hybrid mode is to provide more test centers nationwide so that candidates from rural areas can participate in the exam closer to their homes, said UGC chairman Mamidala Jagadesh.

As per the official calendar shared by the NTA, the CUET UG 2024 will be conducted between May 15 and May 31 for admission to undergraduate courses at central universities and other participating institutions.
