A scheduling clash on June 7, 2026, between the Common University Entrance Test (CUET UG) and the IISER Aptitude Test (IAT) has raised significant concerns among students and parents. A parent of a CUET UG candidate expressed frustration on social media, highlighting that their daughter is already stressed due to examination delays and now faces the impossible task of attending two different test centers simultaneously. The National Testing Agency (NTA) responded promptly, asking the parent to provide their application details for further assistance. This issue has sparked a broader discussion about the need for better coordination among examination authorities to prevent overlaps in schedules, which can severely impact candidates' opportunities for higher education. The situation is compounded by recent criticisms of the NTA's management of the CUET UG 2026, where a technical glitch disrupted the exam for thousands of candidates, leading to a retest for 3,765 students. As of now, the NTA has not provided a solution for the scheduling conflict, leaving many candidates anxious about their upcoming tests.
