New Delhi: Results of the Common University Entrance Test for undergraduate courses (CUET-UG) are likely to be declared on Saturday.
"NTA is working hard to announce the CUET-UG results as soon as possible. NTA's target is to announce the results positively today," said UGC Chairman Professor M Jagadesh Kumar.
Same as last year, students will be provided normalised scores using which universities can prepare merit lists for admission this year.
"When we announce the results, it should be error-free and look at the complexity of administering CUET-UG. 841 question papers were used, 214 in different languages, 534 in English and Hindi, and 93 in 11 regional languages as medium. The total number of questions in these papers was 1.48 lakh," Kumar said.
He added that the candidates were allowed to challenge answer keys from June 29 to July 1, and about 25,782 challenges were received, of which 3886 were unique. As the analysis of these data is finally over, the Result Committee is now examining it and will soon announce the results.
In CUET (UG) 2023, the total registered candidates in all slots were 28,06,021, out of which 19,15,433 appeared.
The test was conducted in 295 cities in India and 17 cities abroad in Computer Based Test (CBT) mode.
According to the National Testing Agency(NTA), no other exams in the country is prominent today as the CUET-UG due to the number of choices provided in choosing the test papers and the number of students who write this test.
