Score methodAdmission to BHU's CUET-UG programmes runs through the Combined Allotment Programme (CAP-UG). BHU does not allot on the raw CUET score: it 'will utilize the CUET (UG) scores provided by NTA to calculate Program-Specific merit scores', and its admission FAQ states 'Merit is determined solely by the CUET-UG normalised score' with class 12 percentage carrying zero weight and used only to break ties. Because the score is computed per programme, a BHU number is not comparable with DU's, nor between BHU programmes.
