The CUET PG 2024 Geology Question Paper (SCQP14) and its solution PDF are available for download, along with previous years' question papers from 2023, 2022, and 2021. The shift-wise papers from 2023, including answer keys for different exam dates and language mediums, are also accessible.
The CUET PG 2024 Geology exam introduced a new format, reducing the total number of questions from 100 to 75 by removing the General Test section (Part A). Each subject's exam lasted 105 minutes and had a total of 300 marks. Based on the analysis of previous years' papers, an expected topic-wise weightage for the CUET PG 2025 Geology exam (SCQP14) has also been provided for reference.
