CUET 2022 PHASE 1 Conducted Today

The National Testing Agency (NTA) is conducting the first day of the Common University Entrance Test undergraduate (CUET UG) 2022 today for phase I students. The students who attended the first session are complaining that some of the questions are not from the NCERT books and therefore, they are not sure about their scores

The admit cards for Phase I students of CUET UG 2022 were released in early hours of July 13, 2022, and students can download the same from the official website — cuet.samarth.ac.in — by logging in through their registered credentials

Candidates who could not appear for the exam today due to a last-minute centre change yesterday, will be given an opportunity to appear in the second phase in August. All affected candidates have been informed about this via phone and email, said a senior NTA official.

This year, the CUET UG exams have been divided into two phases — the first phase will take place on July 15, 1 6, 19 and 20 and the second phase will be held on August 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 10. Citing security reasons, the UGC Chief and NTA officials have made it clear that the admit cards will be released only three to four days prior to the scheduled exam date. “This is a common practice in all the examinations that NTA conducts, whether it is JEE Mains or NEET. We usually issue admit cards four days before the examination,” the University Grants Commission (UGC) Chairman Jagadesh Kumar said on Tuesday.

A total of 14,90,000 students have registered for the CUET UG 2022 exams this year, out of which 8,10,000 have been allotted Phase I and 6,80,000 have been taken in Phase II of the CUET-UG 2022 exam. Students who have been allotted Phase I are unhappy about their schedules.

While the exams for the first slot commenced at 9 am and are scheduled to end by 12:15 pm, the second slot is scheduled from 3 pm to 6:45 pm.
