Q:   How much time is required to complete NUCAT syllabus?
A:

The time required to complete the NUCAT syllabus depends on your familiarity with the topics and your study routine. For students well-versed in Class 11 and 12 concepts, revising and practicing can take around 1-2 months with consistent effort. However, if you're starting fresh or need extensive revisions, a more structured approach of 3-4 months may be necessary. On average, dedicating 6-8 hours daily allows you to cover the syllabus in 8-10 weeks, while 3-4 hours daily might stretch the preparation to 12-16 weeks. It's essential to allocate additional time for mock tests, numericals, and revising weak areas. A well-planned schedule focusing on concepts, problem-solving, and timed practice can help complete the syllabus efficiently.

Q:   Is there a specific syllabus for NUCAT?
A:

Yes, the NUCAT (NU Admission Cum Scholarship Test) generally follows a specific syllabus that aligns closely with the high school (10+2) curriculum, especially focusing on topics covered in standard boards like CBSE, ISC, and various state boards. This helps candidates prepare by reviewing familiar concepts. The syllabus for NUCAT 2025 will be released on the official website.
