CUET UG 2024: Several candidates who took the Common University Entrance Test (CUET) UG have alleged that the responses in the answer keys released by the National Testing Agency (NTA) are incorrect. These claims surfaced a day after the NTA published the answer keys. The agency also stated that it will conduct a retest for CUET UG candidates from July 15 to 19 if any grievances raised by them regarding the exam's conduct are validated.
Candidates can now challenge the answers online until 5 PM on July 9 by paying Rs 200 per answer.
"Challenges made by the candidates will be verified by a panel of subject experts. Based on the revised final answer key, the result will be declared," a senior official said, as reported by news agency PTI.
The delay in CUET-UG results comes amidst a heated controversy over alleged irregularities in competitive exams, including NEET and NET.
The CUET-UG exam, conducted in a hybrid mode for the first time across the country, was cancelled in Delhi the night before it was scheduled, citing logistical reasons. The exam was later conducted in the national capital. The NTA had previously announced that the third edition of CUET-UG would be completed in seven days and there would be no normalisation of scores since all exams would be conducted in a single shift. For 15 subjects, the tests were in pen-and-paper mode, while for the other 48 subjects, the exam was held in a computer-based mode.
Over 13.4 lakh candidates registered for the common entrance test this year for admission to undergraduate courses in 261 central, state, deemed, and private universities.

When I checked my GEOGRAPHY OMR sheet with the CUET(UG) answer key. I am shocked Because 80% of the answer key was wrong. When I calculated the number with the wrong answer key that NTA provides,I only got 26 but in reality I will get 122 . Where my 17 questions are correct. pic.twitter.com/nVyXZGv8ZU

@NTA_Exams In CUET UG exam 2024 there were various questions which were out of syllabus. Those questions in the answer key should be corrected. As well as in some questions all the options were correct so those questions should be dropped. In English exam there was alot of issues

@NTA_Exams gives no replies on "grievances" when they are raised, goes on being self-righteous through every situation, conducts exams with uneducated invigilators and give merely 30 mins to conduct a 45 mins exam. #nta #CUETUG2024 #CUETUG #cuet @EduMinOfIndia @ugc_india pic.twitter.com/kTbRqP1YCf
