4. Understanding what the 100 percentile means (critical point)

100 percentile doesn’t mean you must score 200 on the exam. 100 percentile is the top score obtained in the exam. The highest score in CUET 2023 maths was 150 out of 200; getting a score of 150 is considered the 100 percentile.

What does this mean? You need to be smart about picking the questions in the exam. 

Do not solve each and every question in a linear fashion during the exam. Solve the easiest questions that do not take much time. Remember that you only have 45 minutes to solve a paper with 40 questions. You get roughly 1 minute for each question.

Attempt all the questions that take less than or close to 1 minute to solve. Get the maximum marks possible first. If time permits, go for the ones that can take more time, but you are sure you can get the right answer since a wrong answer can reduce your score. The goal is to secure the maximum possible score in the exam.

5. Mock tests

To get familiar with the exam conducted, take up mock tests in CBT/MBT (Computer/Mobile Based Testing). It will familiarize you with the exam structure and make you more comfortable in the real exam. You can find free and paid CUET mock tests online to practice.
