CUET-UG Topper’s Tips: ‘Solely referred NCERT books,’ says DU’s Miranda House student

Saikia said that she chose Miranda House because she always wanted to study in the University of Delhi and this college’s legacy and its current standing in academia inspired her to study in that college.

Speaking about her CUET UG preparation strategy, Saikia said that she preferred self-studying and relied on the prescribed NCERT books.

For English, however, she went through several sources available on the internet to gather as much knowledge as she could about the language. She did not use any fixed book for preparing English.

CUET UG Topper’s Tips: Some takeaways 

What would be your advise to the CUET UG aspirants?
For the future aspirants, I would like to say that they should be determined to work hard to achieve their goals. Motivation is a driving factor to push yourself every day and give one’s best to study religiously. They should not be nervous and anxious on the day of the exam and appear it with confidence and full concentration.

What do you think about CUET?
CUET has been introduced to provide all the students an equal opportunity. The exam provides a uniform basis for everyone to give their best attempt to get into their desired college. The initial introduction of the entrance exam brought about a lot of chaos and confusion among students as no one was aware how to appear for the exam but slowly things are becoming clearer now.
