Delhi University will release the Simulate List today before announcing the DU First Merit List 2022. "Simulated list will be released to help candidates assess their probabilities of securing admission to a programme in a college. After the declaration of the 'Simulated List', two more days will also be provided to the candidates to reorder their preferences" she said.
