Greetings! I'm studying B.sc Bioinformatics final year at a tier-2 college. I'd like to get admission in either M.sc Data Science/M.sc Information Technology/ MCA in any of the central universities in India. Do I need to apply for CUET or CUCET? Or are they the same? And, what is the eligibility?

Hello Aspirant,Hope you are doing well

There is no difference between CUET and CUCET. The full form of CUET is Common University Entrance Test which is the new name of Central University Common Entrance Test. National testing agency  will conduct Common University Entrance Test.

The exam will be conducted in a computer-based mode (CBT) in 13 languages, namely Engish, Hindi, Punjabi, Bengali, Odia, Assamese, Gujarati, Marathi, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Tamil and Urdu. The question paper of CUET 2022 will include a compulsory language test, two domain-specific tests, and a general test.

Approximately one lakh candidates are expected to appear for CUET 2022.
