Hello Aspirant,
To get admission in ICAR-affiliated colleges through CUET UG, your syllabus will primarily be based on your Class 12 NCERT curriculum for the subjects you choose.
You need to select a specific combination of subjects in CUET that aligns with the requirements of the agricultural or allied science programs you want to pursue. The common subject combinations for ICAR UG admissions are:
Physics + Chemistry + Biology (PCB)
Physics + Chemistry + Mathematics (PCM)
Agriculture + Biology + Chemistry
Agriculture + Physics + Chemistry
You will also have a Language paper (usually English or Hindi) and an optional General Test section, depending on the specific program and university's requirements. The domain-specific subjects like Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, and Agriculture will cover topics taught in your 12th standard.

Hello,
If you’re aiming for ICAR admission through CUET-UG, you’ll need to prepare according to the subjects relevant for your chosen program like Agriculture, Horticulture, Dairy Technology, etc. For UG Agriculture programs, CUET tests mainly from Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, and Agriculture Science, based on NCERT Class 12 syllabus. The ICAR-approved CUET syllabus is almost identical to the NCERT syllabus, so focus on Class 11 & 12 textbooks. In addition, practice previous CUET mock papers and ICAR sample questions because they help you understand question patterns. CUET-UG also includes a general test reasoning, GK, current affairs, quantitative aptitude for some programs, so check the ICAR brochure to confirm if your program requires it. Preparation tip revise NCERT line by line, as factual recall is high in these exams.
