There is no list of compulsory subjects for commerce students in CUET. Instead, the subjects you have to choose depend upon the *university* as well as the *program* you are applying for. However, here is a general idea based on the structure of CUET and the options available for commerce students:
-
# CUET Subject Options for Commerce Students
CUET comprises three sections:
1. Section IA: Language Test (Compulsory)
Choose one language of your preference from the following: English, Hindi, etc.
Some colleges may demand a specific language according to the eligibility criteria of that particular college.
2. Section II: Domain Specific Subjects To be chosen by Commerce students, the domain subject will be any one of the following:
Accountancy/Bookkeeping
Business Studies
Economics
Mathematics if required
Entrepreneurship if some specific courses
Check which are compulsory by looking at the specific programme and university requirements.
3. *Section III: General Test (Optional/University-Specific)*
General Knowledge, Current Affairs, Quantitative Aptitude, Logical Reasoning and Verbal Ability
Some universities require another test on top of these, depending on the programs.
# Program-Wise Guidance for Commerce Students
This is how the subject choices normally are for the most popular programs that can be given to commerce students for the most widely offered programs:
1. B.Com (Hons)/BBA/*Management Programs:*

# *Important Things to Remember*
The *courses* you select should be relevant to the *eligibility criteria of the university* you are planning to apply to.
