Initially, the CUET Exam 2022 was held in two slots by the NTA; for instance, shifts 1 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. and 2 from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. However, the CUET Exam 2023 will be held in three slots beginning this year.

The NTA has reduced the number of questions a candidate must attempt on the CUET exam 2023. Although the pattern of Sections 1A and 1B is the same, there are fewer questions in Sections 2 and 3.
According to the schedule, the CUET 2023 will be held from May 21-31. This time, the NTA has made several significant changes to the CUET 2023 exam structure, fees for registration, and the number of overseas exam locations. In the past, CUET UG was held in 13 different countries, but that number increased to 24 in 2023.

Candidates can submit their applications for the CUET UG Exam 2023 by March 12, 2023. However, candidates should avoid making mistakes when filling out the form because the NTA will reject it.
How to Apply
Candidates can fill out the CUET 2023 application in the straightforward manner outlined below:
Students from Central Universities can take two courses simultaneously starting in the coming academic year.
Students can now apply for two courses with the option to choose between a regular course and a distance course if central universities accept the proposal.
A new clause has been added to the provision by UGC Chairman Jagadesh Kumar, requiring graduate students to complete an internship to develop their skills per market expectations. After visiting the fields and projects, students will also have to complete community outreach projects. In addition, students will have more courses to choose from, and adding certificate and diploma courses will give them more options.
According to reports, central institutions are eager to promote Indian languages and have already implemented the UGC criteria to run two academic programs. First, professors of Practice have begun to be appointed by institutions for this purpose. These are people without a PhD whose primary occupation is not teaching yet, but they are hired based on their professional experience.
