As an IILM University student, the most effective way I found to revise multiple CUET subjects in a short time is to be smart, not exhaustive.
First, I focus only on high-weightage and frequently repeated topics from each subject instead of trying to cover everything. That alone saves a lot of time.

I used CUET Mock to balance my preparation. First I revised my core subjects, then practiced short mocks on CUETMOCK for language, reasoning, and aptitude. It showed real exam patterns, highlighted weak areas, and made me confident for both sections.

Yes, candidates who do not fulfill the subject mapping and eligibility criteria for a UG course at the applied university may face disqualification during the admission process. It means that, even if a candidate scores well in the CUET UG exam but do not meet the subject combination requirements of the target CUET college, their application will be rejected.
