With the release of CUET city intimation slip 2025 on May 7, the National Testing Agency has allowed students to check their exam cities, along with the exam dates and exam shifts. It has come to our attention that there is confusion regarding the CUET exam dates. One student who is appearing for CUET accountancy paper 2025 from Hyderabad told Careers360 that his exam date is mentioned as May 16.

However, another student who is also appearing for the same subject from Delhi told us that the same subjects’ exam is on May 14. Naturally, the first question that arises is why this difference in dates is being shown. Since, earlier this year, then UGC Chairman Mamidala Jagadesh Kumar announced through an official notification that CUET 2025 will not follow any normalisation process.

CUET normalisation process is implemented to ensure that all the students are equally judged even when they write the exam on different dates or on different shifts. As CUET is conducted in various sessions and each session is likely to have a marginally different question paper, there are chances that certain papers are simpler or tougher compared to others. So that a student does not get an advantage or disadvantage which is unfair compared to the others, the National Testing Agency (NTA) normalises marks through a formula.

Now that the CUET 2025 city intimation slip has been announced on May 7, students have noticed discrepancies in exam dates for the same paper. For instance, a student in Hyderabad has Accountancy on May 16, whereas one from Delhi has it on May 14. That has left students questioning fairness, particularly since the NTA declared that normalisation will not be applied this year. Without normalisation, students fear that those who receive difficult question papers may be at a disadvantage.
The National Testing Agency implemented the CUET normalisation process in the past since there is no way to conduct an exam in two different days without compromising the difficulty level of the paper. If the exam papers remain the same it would not be fair to the students appearing on the first day of exams, making it an unviable choice.
The National Testing Agency has announced that there would not be any normalisation process. It has created confusion among students as dates for the same CUET papers show different dates for students from different cities.
We have reached out to NTA whether there will be any normalisation in CUET 2025. We will share the updates as soon as we receive any response from the National Testing Agency. Students are advised to check this article regularly for updates.
