The ICAR online test is conducted slot-wise. This slot-wise test ensures a level playing field across different agricultural sciences. Whether the ASRB conducts the ASRB ICAR NET online test once or twice a year depends on several factors.

The maximum number of attempts allowed for a candidate to sit for the examination is five.

The exam is usually held in December and the notice for the examination is issued a few months before the date of the examination. Whether the ASRB conducts the ICAR NET examination once or twice every year is dependent on various factors such as availability of vacant posts, demand for skilled candidates in the field of agriculture research and education, and resources and administrative aspects of ASRB and ICAR.

ASRB ICAR NET cut-offs are set by the ASRB according to a standardized process. Some of the factors that are usually taken into consideration are the number of vacancies and the difficulty of the exam. The number of vacancies is a major factor in determining how many candidates will be able to sit for the test. If the number of vacancies is low, the exam cut-off will be lower. The difficulty of the exam is another factor that is taken into consideration. The difficulty of the exam can be adjusted to ensure that the candidates have a fair chance of getting through. If there are a large number of candidates for the exam, the competition will be more intense. This can lead to a higher cut-off mark.
