Understand the Exam Pattern and Syllabus
- Begin preparation by analysing the CUET UG Biology syllabus derived strictly from NCERT Class 12 Biology.
- The paper contains MCQs with single correct option.
- Marking Scheme: +5 for each correct answer and −1 for each wrong attempt.
- Identify chapter-wise weightage and frequently asked topics to prioritise important units.
- Understanding the structure of the exam builds a strong strategic base.
Build a Strong Foundation from NCERT
- NCERT is the primary and most important source for CUET Biology.
- Read every chapter from NCERT Class 12 Biology thoroughly.
- Highlight definitions, diagrams, processes, and summary points.
- Focus strongly on Reproduction, Genetics, Evolution, Biotechnology, and Ecology—high application units.
- Aim to understand concepts, not memorise line-by-line, to answer application-based MCQs confidently.
Make a Realistic and Balanced Timetable
- Divide daily study hours into three blocks:
- Concept learning from NCERT and reference books
- Topic-wise MCQ practice
- Revision + mock tests
- Dedicate 1–2 hours daily exclusively for Biology.
- Follow a weekly revision cycle and maintain a progress checklist.
- Consistency improves retention and boosts conceptual clarity.
Practice With PYQs and Mock Tests
- Solving previous year question papers (PYQs) helps recognise recurring themes.
- Benefits of PYQs:
- Familiarity with question framing
- Improved speed and accuracy
- Identification of strong and weak areas
