CUET UG 2025 Result: Most and least scored subjects from last year

CUET UG 2025 Result: Most and least scored subjects from last year

Indian Express04-07-2025
CUET UG 2025 Result: As the National Testing Agency (NTA) is set to declare the Common University Entrance Test Undergraduate (CUET UG) results today, let us look at last year's data on student performance across subjects. From business studies to lesser-known languages, the CUET UG result last year saw a wide variation in the number of students securing full marks.

In 2024, Business Studies emerged as the subject with the highest number of full scores, with a staggering 8,024 candidates scoring the maximum marks of 200. The subject's popularity and scoring potential have made it a favorite among commerce stream students. In 2023, as many as 2,357 candidates scored the maximum marks in the subject.
Closely followed by political science, where 5,141 students scored the maximum marks – 200. English was the third most scoring subject in CUET UG last year where 1,683 students achieved a perfect score of 200. In 2023, however, English was the top subject where most students (5,685) scored the maximum marks. The subject's wide adoption and structured syllabus likely contributed to the high success rate.
Other high-scoring subjects included psychology, where 1,602 students scored 200 marks and accountancy/ book keeping where 1,135 students scored 200 marks. In biology/ biological studies/ biotechnology and biochemistry, as many as 835 students scored the maximum marks – 200, showing strong performances from both science and commerce backgrounds.
On the flip side, several niche and regional languages saw only one or two candidates scoring full marks. Subjects like Assamese, Kannada, Malayalam, Manipuri, Mizo, Kashmiri, Konkani, Russian, Sanskrit, and even foreign languages like French, German, Spanish, and Tibetan had just one to two top scorers each.
Interestingly, environmental studies, despite its relatively lower maximum score of 170, saw only two candidates getting the full marks — reflecting either a tougher evaluation standard or limited participation.
The data reveals that while mainstream subjects offer a broader competitive pool with more high scores, niche subjects can still be strategic choices — especially for those students confident in their strengths. With CUET UG becoming a gateway to multiple central universities, understanding scoring trends can help students make smarter academic choices.
As we await the CUET UG 2025 results, these patterns from last year may just offer a clue to what's ahead. Around 13.5 lakh candidates appeared in CUET UG this year. CUET UG 2025 was held from May 13 to June 4.

Drizz raises $2.7 million to automate mobile app testing with AI

Drizz, a startup founded by former engineering leaders from Amazon, Coinbase, and Gojek, has closed a $2.7 million seed round to develop artificial intelligence that can test mobile applications by mimicking how humans interact with smartphone screens. Drizz uses computer vision technology to identify and interact with app elements without requiring traditional coding scripts. The funding round was led by Stellaris Venture Partners, with participation from Veda VC and individual investors, including Anuj Rathi, former chief business officer at travel booking site Cleartrip, and Vaibhav Domkundwar. The company, founded by Asad Abrar, Partha Mohanty, and Yash Varyani, plans to use the capital to enhance its vision AI engine and expand its engineering team. 'Every app team is accelerating with AI, but testing still lags behind,' said Asad Abrar, co-founder and chief executive officer of Drizz. 'During my time as a product manager at Coinbase, locator-based tests broke with every UI shift, turning QA into a bottleneck. That frustration led us to build Drizz — an AI-native platform that keeps up with modern development and actually delivers confidence at scale.' Drizz helps developers and QA teams to write, run, and maintain end-to-end test coverage using plain English prompts instead of fragile code. It allows them to run tests across iOS and Android using one shared suite, generate test flows in natural language, and rely on self-healing automation that remains stable through UI changes. 'AI is fundamentally changing how software is built, tested, and deployed. In an era where more software needs to be shipped faster than ever, software quality has become the biggest bottleneck,' said Alok Goyal, partner at Stellaris Venture Partners. 'Drizz is therefore tackling one of the most critical parts of the software development cycle with a unique, vision-first approach. By solving real QA pain points and bringing non-technical users into the loop, Drizz is reimagining mobile application testing with AI.' In early deployments, Drizz said it has delivered over 97 per cent test accuracy and reduced test creation time by 10x, earning adoption from global unicorns and high engagement from developers. 'Where traditional testing may break, Drizz remains stable and flags bugs with detailed log intelligence that pinpoints the root cause. This ultimately saves testing teams both time and guesswork,' said Yash Varyani, co-founder and chief technology officer of Drizz. 'We want to redefine how quality software is shipped in the age of AI,' said Partha Mohanty, Drizz co-founder and head of product

The unexpected risk Ivy League students face using ChatGPT in class

How Ivy League universities in the US are managing ChatGPT and AI misuse. (AI Image) The rapid adoption of artificial intelligence tools such as ChatGPT has introduced new challenges in US higher education, especially within Ivy League universities. These prestigious institutions are grappling with how to integrate AI in learning while maintaining academic integrity. As reported by Forbes, the use of generative AI presents both opportunities and risks for students, educators and the institutions themselves. Ivy League schools have not imposed blanket rules on AI use, but instead emphasise the autonomy of individual instructors to determine policies in their courses. This approach reflects the complexity of AI's impact on learning outcomes and academic honesty, and it places responsibility on students to understand when and how AI can be used appropriately. Instructor and course autonomy define AI policies Princeton University's official policy states that if generative AI is permitted by the instructor, students must disclose its use but not cite it as a source since AI is considered an algorithm rather than an author. The policy further advises students to familiarise themselves with departmental regulations regarding AI use, as reported by Forbes. Similarly, Dartmouth College allows instructors to decide whether AI tools can be used based on intended learning outcomes. This decentralised system means that students cannot assume uniformity in AI policies across courses, even within the same institution. A student permitted to use AI for brainstorming in one class might find it prohibited in another. This variation extends to disciplines; STEM courses may allow wider use of AI tools, while humanities departments like English often restrict AI to preserve critical thinking and originality. AI misuse is considered academic dishonesty Several Ivy League schools, including the University of Pennsylvania and Columbia University, have clearly stated that misuse of generative AI constitutes academic dishonesty. According to Forbes, students who improperly use AI may face disciplinary measures similar to those for plagiarism. Understanding how AI functions is critical for students to make informed decisions about its use. They need to be able to evaluate AI-generated content critically, identify hallucinations or inaccuracies, and disclose AI assistance when allowed. As Forbes reports, schools also emphasise the importance of respecting intellectual property rights, warning against uploading confidential or proprietary information to AI platforms without proper protections in place. Policies are evolving alongside AI technology Given the fast pace of AI development, Ivy League institutions regularly review and update their AI guidelines. Columbia University notes that guidance on generative AI use is expected to evolve as experience with the technology grows, as reported by Forbes. Faculty are encouraged to experiment with new pedagogical methods and adapt their course policies to reflect changing realities. Students preparing for collegiate study are advised to develop technological literacy and critical thinking skills to navigate these shifting policies successfully. The indiscriminate use of AI tools may hinder their ability to demonstrate independent thought, a quality highly valued by Ivy League admissions and faculty alike. In summary, Ivy League students face the unexpected risk of navigating a complex and evolving landscape of AI policies. While generative AI offers powerful tools for learning, misuse or overreliance can lead to academic consequences. Awareness, transparency and critical engagement with AI are essential to avoid these risks, as these elite US institutions continue to balance innovation with academic standards.
