By Career Launcher – South Ex Center

The culmination of your hard work, dedication, and countless hours of preparation is finally here—the CUET exam day. While your academic preparation forms the backbone, your performance on the day of the exam can make all the difference. This guide will help you move through the day with clarity, focus, and confidence. Brought to you by the top CLAT coaching in South Ex Delhi, we're here to support your journey every step of the way.


The Day Before the Exam: Laying the Groundwork

Strategic Revision
Avoid last-minute cramming. Instead, focus on high-impact review areas such as:

  • Key formulas and concepts from each subject

  • Flashcards and one-pagers for quick recall

  • Mock test reviews to learn from past mistakes

  • Important dates and vocabulary, especially for General Awareness

Organizing Exam Essentials
Make sure you’ve packed the following:

  • Printed Admit Card

  • Valid Photo ID (Aadhaar, PAN, School ID, etc.)

  • Transparent pens and other permitted stationery

  • A clear water bottle (if allowed)

  • Comfortable attire as per NTA guidelines

Important Reminder: Leave behind prohibited items like mobile phones, smartwatches, and calculators.

Prioritizing Rest and Nutrition

  • Eat a light and nutritious dinner to avoid discomfort

  • Aim for at least 7–8 hours of quality sleep to ensure mental sharpness


Morning of the Exam: Setting the Tone

Early Start

  • Wake up with enough time to avoid rushing

  • Eat a light, balanced breakfast—opt for fruits, toast, or nuts

  • Stay hydrated but avoid excess water just before the test

Timely Arrival

  • Leave early, allowing extra time for travel delays

  • Reach the exam center at least one hour before your reporting time


Inside the Exam Center: Navigating the Environment

Composure and Focus

  • Maintain a calm and confident mindset

  • Use deep breathing to calm nerves and refocus

Understanding Instructions

  • Carefully read all on-screen and invigilator instructions

  • Be mindful: once you leave a section, you cannot return to it

Time Management Across Sections
Here’s a suggested allocation of time per section:

  • Language (45 mins): 10 minutes for comprehension, 35 minutes for grammar and vocabulary

  • Domain Subject 1 (45 mins): Start with familiar topics

  • Domain Subject 2 (45 mins): Don’t get stuck—move on when unsure

  • General Test (60 mins): 15 minutes for reasoning, 20 for math, 25 for general knowledge


During the Exam: Execution Strategies

The Three-Pass Approach

  • First Pass: Solve all questions you are confident about

  • Second Pass: Tackle questions where you're somewhat sure

  • Third Pass: Attempt the remaining questions using educated guesses

Avoiding Common Pitfalls

  • Don’t spend too long on any one question

  • Use the elimination method to narrow down options

  • Treat each section as a fresh start—don’t carry stress from the previous section


Post-Exam: Reflect and Recharge

  • Avoid overthinking your performance right after the test

  • Take time to relax and de-stress with something enjoyable

  • If you have more exams lined up, refocus your schedule and plan ahead
