IPU CET 2026 Syllabus: Overview

The IPU CET exam is program-specific and designed to assess aptitude, subject, and analytical skill in a variety of disciplines. In popular undergraduate courses such as BBA, BCA, B.Com (Hons.), and BJMC, the syllabus is broken down into parts, including English Language and Comprehension, Logical Reasoning, General Awareness, Mathematics, and subject-based aptitude. The majority of IPU programs operate on the basis of a balanced weightage model, whereby the three areas of focus that get equal attention are reasoning, communication skills, and quantitative ability. 

Technical ones, such as B.Tech, are similar to the JEE main syllabus, whereas professional courses such as MBA, Law, Medical, and Architecture are based on national-level entrance exams such as CAT, CLAT, NEET, and NATA.
