New Delhi, September 16

At least 114 candidates secured 100 percentile score in four or five subjects in the debut edition of the Common University Entrance Test (CUET)-UG, the results of which were declared earlier today.

As many as 21,159 candidates scored 100 percentile, including 12,799 women candidates, in at least one subject.

While English has the highest number of 100 percentile scorers (8,236 candidates), political science is at number two (2,065), followed by business studies (1,669). Other subjects which have witnessed over 1,000 candidates with 100 percentile are biology, economics and psychology, meaning the cutoff for college admissions in these subjects is likely to be high.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
