Q. How much time did you devote to self-study? What do you feel is better, coaching or self-study?
A. I devoted around 3-4 hours daily and I personally think self-study is way better because I didn’t opt for coaching and got more time to mold the path of my preparation to my personalised way wherein I can give more focus to the topics which are the most important but anyways students might feel the need for coaching for English, General Test and Maths otherwise, no coaching is required for domain subjects.

Q. How did you prepare for CUET UG, just a month before the exam?
A. I think the key to preparation for CUET would definitely be how good the concepts of class 12 are and the major time utilization for the last month should be primarily focused on mocks and doing online mocks so that there should be no time issues in the examination, and hence I think one month will be more than enough for the preparation.
