By Prashant for PuneriPages.in
So, CUET 2025 is around the corner, and if you’re like most science stream students, the pressure must be real. But don’t worry – I’ve got your back. I made this guide especially for students like you who want to crack CUET without burning out. Whether you’re focusing on Physics, Chemistry, or Biology, this one’s written in plain English, just like how we talk with friends. Let’s dive in.

📘 What is CUET and Why Should You Care?
CUET (Common University Entrance Test) is a national-level exam for UG admissions into central and other participating universities. If you’re aiming for Delhi University, BHU, or any top university – CUET is your ticket.
And if you’re from the Science stream – you’ve got to deal with subjects like Physics, Chemistry, Biology, or Maths (depending on what you’re taking).
🔬 CUET Science Domain: What Subjects You Can Choose
In the Science domain, here’s what most students pick:
- Physics
- Chemistry
- Biology
- Mathematics
- General Test (optional but can help in scoring)
You can pick up to six subjects, so choose wisely depending on your UG course goals.
📚 How to Prepare – Subject-Wise Tips
🔋 Physics:
- Start with NCERT. Every question is twisted from there.
- Make short notes of formulas.
- Practice numerical problems – don’t skip them.
⚗️ Chemistry:
- Divide into Physical, Organic, and Inorganic.
- Physical needs calculation – again, NCERT + practice.
- Organic: Learn reactions and mechanisms.
- Inorganic: Focus on NCERT line by line.
🧬 Biology:
- Honestly, NCERT is your Bible here.
- Diagram-based questions are common.
- Revise important terms regularly.
➕ Maths (if you’re taking it):
- Formula sheet = lifesaver.
- Practice mock tests and sample papers.
🕒 Time Management – Don’t Study 12 Hours a Day
Seriously, study smart, not just hard. Here’s a sample study plan that works:
- 2 hours for tough subject (Physics or Maths)
- 1 hour revision (yesterday’s topic)
- 1 hour mock test or practice
- Breaks are important – walk, chill, music
Use the Pomodoro technique if you get distracted easily.
🧠 Best Books for CUET Science
Besides NCERT, here are a few must-haves:
- Physics: HC Verma (for concepts), Arihant CUET Practice Books
- Chemistry: OP Tandon (Physical), NCERT is more than enough for Organic & Inorganic
- Biology: Trueman + NCERT
And yes – solve past year CUET papers.
🎯 Final Tips – From One Student to Another
- Don’t try to do everything – pick your strong subjects.
- Start early – like now.
- Don’t compare yourself with others.
- Join a study group if that helps.
- Sleep matters more than you think.
You’ve got this. One exam won’t define your future – but doing your best will definitely open doors.
And hey, if this guide helped even a bit, share it with your friends. We all deserve a fair shot at college dreams.
Good luck, champ! 💪
