CUET Exam

The CUET is a gateway to prominent universities in India for MBA programmes. In India, there are approximately 152 MBA colleges that accept CUET-PG scores for admission. These colleges accept the Central University Entrance Test (CUET), which is administered by the NTA and is a common admission test for numerous UG and PG degrees. There are 73 colleges owned by the private sector, 67 by the public sector, and one by the public-private sector. 

On February 10, the National Testing Agency issued the CUET 2023 syllabus for domain-specific studies, along with an information booklet. Candidates are advised to extensively review the syllabus of CUET for their specific degree in order to prepare for the exam. The CUET UG 2023 test will be held from May 21 to May 31. The CUET syllabus for the year 2023-24 will be the same as prior. Candidates can review it to obtain a sense of the knowledge that will be included in the Common Entrance Test.
