2022 CUET was a nightmare. Nobody knew what the cut-offs would look like. The uncertainty was exhausting, and at one point, my friends and I genuinely thought we might not get into any college. Constantly refreshing updates, checking cut-off predictions, overthinking preference lists, and waiting for the first allocation list, it felt like an endless, tormenting phase. I got into Indraprastha College For Women in the first list, and the relief was indescribable.😭 Some people made mistakes while filling their preference lists. Others underestimated their scores. It was a confusing time, and almost everyone had a story. Our batch was probably the most experimental one giving two board exams in Class 12, navigating the first CUET, and stepping into the NEP era. Looking back, I'm glad I went through it. It taught me that difficult phases don't last forever. They pass. And more often than not, they leave you stronger than they found you. Since then, I've carried a little more trust that uncertainty is part of the process, not the end of everything. How was your CUET experience? Riya Yadav
