CUET PG English Mock Test: Free Online Test from the 2026 Paper

By Nakul Grover, founder of Limitless Literature · Part of our CUET PG English guide

Quick answer: This free CUET PG English mock test uses 70 real questions from the CUET PG 2026 English paper (12 March 2026, Shift 3). Click an option and you see at once whether it is right; the correct answer turns green. Answers follow NTA’s final answer key. The last five questions of the real paper are on an unseen passage, so they are in the downloadable PDF rather than here.

How to Take This Mock Test

• Time yourself: the real paper gives 90 minutes for 75 questions. For these 70, aim for about 84 minutes.
• Score it like CUET PG: +4 for each right answer, −1 for each wrong one, 0 for a question you skip. Maximum here: 280.
• Do not guess blindly: answer only when you can rule out at least two options. That is the habit negative marking rewards.
• Review all four options after each question, not just the right one. Every wrong option is a fact you can use in another question.

Option (A) to (D) here are options (1) to (4) in the official paper. Question wording is kept as in the paper.

What Is a Good Score?

JNU usually needs about 245 out of 300 in the unreserved category, DU around 220 and BHU around 200, going by previous years. On this 70-question test, 230 or more out of 280 puts you on track for JNU. If you scored below 180, go back to the foundation: British literature first, then Indian writing and criticism. The CUET PG English syllabus page shows which units carry the most questions.
