How the CUET PG Paper Changed (2022–2026)

2022 and 2023: 100 questions in 2 hours. Part A had 25 general questions (language, reasoning, general awareness) and Part B had 75 subject questions.
2024: Part A was removed. Papers had 75 subject questions in 105 minutes, and the General paper (COQP11) became a separate choice.
2025 onwards: the same 75 questions in 90 minutes. That is 72 seconds a question.
Using older papers: the 75 subject questions in the 2022 and 2023 papers are still good practice. Skip Part A unless you are taking the General paper.

What a CUET PG Paper Looks Like

A 2026 paper opens with the subject, exam date and shift (for example, “Political Science 11th March 2026 Shift 1”). It shows 90 minutes and 300 marks, and all 75 questions are compulsory. Each question appears in English and then Hindi. These three questions are from that Political Science paper (HUQP18), and the answers come from NTA’s final key.

Q1. Who among the following political thinkers said, “No one deserves his greater natural capacity nor merit a more favourable starting place in society”?

John Stuart Mill
Karl Marx

In the final key for this paper, NTA accepted two options as correct for three questions. Always mark your attempt against the final key, not the provisional one.

How to Use CUET PG Previous Year Papers?

Time yourself at 90 minutes. That is 72 seconds a question. If a question takes longer than 2 minutes, move on.
Know what a guess is worth. With −1 for a wrong answer, a blind guess among four options averages +0.25 marks. Ruling out one option raises that to about +0.67.
Solve 2026 and 2025 first, because they match the 2027 pattern. Use the 2022 to 2024 papers for topic practice.
Plan for March 2027. One full paper a week, checked against the key, covers every year’s paper for your subject twice before the exam.

CUET PG Previous Year Question Papers FAQs

Does NTA release CUET PG question papers?

NTA shows each candidate’s question paper with their recorded answers during the answer key challenge, and later publishes the final key. There is no public archive, so this page collects every subject’s paper by year.

How many questions are there in a CUET PG paper?

75 multiple-choice questions for 300 marks in 90 minutes, in 2025 and 2026. Papers from 2022 and 2023 had 100 questions in 2 hours.

Is there negative marking in CUET PG?

Yes. A correct answer gets +4, a wrong answer loses 1 mark, and an unattempted question gets 0.

Are the 2022 and 2023 CUET PG papers still useful?

Yes, for subject practice. Their 75 Part B questions match today’s subject paper. Part A (25 general questions) is no longer part of subject papers.

Yes. Every 2026 subject paper is here with NTA’s official answer key. Keys are also here for 2022, 2023 and 2025 (all subjects in one file); 2024 has papers only.
