CUET UG 2024 Science syllabus: The National Testing Agency has begun the online registration process for the Common University Entrance Test for Undergraduate courses (CUET UG) 2024, on its official website cuetug.ntaonline.in.
Candidates who wish to appear in the entrance test aimed at a unified process of admission to various undergraduate programs offered by participating central and state universities in the country, can apply online by registering on the NTA CUET UG 2024 portal.The last date to apply is March 26, 2024, 11:50PM.
The CUET UG 2024 exams are scheduled to begin on May 15, and go on till May 31, 2024. Specific dates for exams has been detailed on the official website. One of the major subject clusters- science has a number of sub-domains which the NTA CUET UG 2024 exam will cover, such as Chemistry, Microbiology, Geology, Mathematics, Physics, Statistics, Plant biotechnology, and a host of others.
CUET UG official syllabus for science subjectsEvery year, the CUET UG conducting body – NTA, releases the official syllabus for the exam. It is an important document for participating students because it contains a list of topics that the students must cover in order to take the exam. However, the list is not exhaustive, and participating students should cover the entire syllabus for their domain subjects. Below is the official list of topics prescribed by the NTA for CUET UG 2023.
