    Hello Ankita,
    As a graduate with a sociology degree, you will have a foundation for better understanding and engaging with the globalizing world. Many employers prefer liberal arts majors because they have been well-trained in the basics and because their broad education makes them flexible and adaptable to changing conditions.

If you're preparing for the CUET Sociology exam, first understand the basics of the subject. An NCERT book of Class 12 will help you do that. 

  • You can also apply the strategic study approach, where you'll create a study schedule, focus on the important topics, and then establish a connection between the topics. 
  • Third, practice and revision are key. Try solving previous years' papers and taking mock tests.
  • Lastly, staying updated with the current affairs is equally important being a Sociology aspirant.

For BA Sociology, choose the Sociology subject in the domain-specific section. I would personally suggest you consider adding two more subjects, like History, Political Science, Psychology, etc. Also, don't forget to check the specific subject requirements of the university you're aiming for.
