NTA Director Vineet Joshi says mandatory CUET will use ‘model syllabus’, comprising questions from NCERT and state boards. Not even questions from Class XI will be used.
The DU website portal went live at 8pm Monday. The admission process will be completely online and nearly 70,000 seats under various courses are up for grabs.
Delhi University teachers say that while FYUP is student-friendly given the multiple exit options, it ignores staff welfare. They also said its implementation was being rushed.
The varsity received 2,85,128 applications from CBSE Board students, followed by 12,272 from Board of School Education Haryana & 11,521 from the Council for the ISCE.
