The National Testing Agency (NTA) is expected to release the Common University Entrance Test Undergraduate (CUET UG) provisional answer key soon. Candidates will be able to check and download the provisional answer key once it is available on the official website, exams.nta.ac.in/CUET-UG. Candidates will require their application number, date of birth, or password to access the provisional answer key. Candidates can also know their possible score in the entrance examination with the help of the provisional answer key.
The National Testing Agency will also open the objection window along with the release of the provisional answer key. The objection window will be kept open for a few days so that candidates who are not satisfied with any answer can raise objections against that answer key. The candidates will be required to pay a non-refundable amount for each question they will be raising objections for.
This year, the CUET UG examination was held on May 15, 16, 17, 18, 21, 22, 24 and 29. It was conducted in various exam centres located in 379 cities across the nation and 26 cities outside of India, in a hybrid mode i.e. in computer-based test and pen-and-paper mode.
