The CUET preparation requires hard work, innovative work, dedication, strategic planning and perseverance to qualify for a top-notch college like DU, AMU, JNU etc., successfully. You would already know that you must start your CUET preparations 2023 with boards. However, how do you bring this into reality and practice? Know how?
The strategies in this article will ultimately land you a better rank in CUET results and help you excel in your 12th examination.
The journey does not begin with preparation directly; you need an overview and clarity of what you are dealing with. You must be familiar with the CUET Syllabus 2023 and the CUET Exam pattern 2023.
The earlier you start your preparations, the more time you have to prepare for board and CUET simultaneously. Start your CUET preparations from day 1 of your board preparations.

Understand if the subject and college you wish to choose - have a GT section.
Divide your study hours into two halves. Start with your board preparations and later move on to solve mocks of related topics; by doing so, you are covering boards and domain subject CUET questions.
When dedicating a day only for CUET preparations, make sure you solve language and GT mocks together.
Do not neglect your boards; your domain subjects are entirely the class 12 curriculum.
Therefore, preparing for boards equals preparing for section 2 domain subjects.
Most boards use NCERT textbooks, and your CUET paper also has concepts from the NCERT textbook.
If you thoroughly practise NCERT, scoring 100% is possible.

List down the topics to be covered through a timetable. Once you finish studying a concept, start practising mocks.
Note that your preparations aren't good enough without practising a maximum number of mocks!
