NET

As you have completed M.Com and ICAI (Institute of Chartered Accountants of India), it is up to you whether you want to appear for the National Eligibility Test (NET) exam or not. Qualifying the NET exam is one of the eligibility criteria for the appointment of Assistant Professor in colleges and universities and for the award of Junior Research Fellowship (JRF). If you are interested in pursuing a career in teaching or research in Commerce, then qualifying the NET exam may enhance your career opportunities. However, if you are not interested in pursuing a career in teaching or research and instead wish to pursue a career as a Chartered Accountant, then appearing for the NET exam may not be necessary. In any case, it is recommended that you research and consider your career goals and options before deciding whether to appear for the NET exam or not.

1- The major difference between the National Eligibility Test and the Symbiosis Entrance Test exam is the syllabus. As we already know, the NET examination is national-level; therefore, it is carried out at a wide level and for 81 subjects. While the Symbiosis Entrance Test examination is administered at the state level, the state determines the subjects.
2- National Eligibility Test is organized on a broad scale, and only 5 percent of the total students appearing is estimated to clear it. The percentage of candidates clearing the Symbiosis Entrance Test is comparatively higher than NET.
3- The National Eligibility Test exam is conducted twice a year whereas the Symbiosis Entrance Test exam is conducted once every year.
4- The qualifying students for National Eligibility Test can appeal for teaching in any college in the country. Whereas The qualified students for Symbiosis Entrance Test can only apply to particular state-owned colleges or universities for teaching.
5- All the National Eligibility Test qualifying students are awarded Junior Fellowships whereas students are awarded Junior Fellowships if they have passed the Symbiosis Entrance Test and applied for the same during the application registration.

Hi
Both NET and SET are important for aspirants who are aiming for lectureship and Junior Research Fellowship. However, NET is considered difficult compared to SET. Therefore, candidates preparing for NET can also appear for SET. The UGC NET Exams are comparatively more difficult than the SET Exams conducted by the State Governments. But the candidates appearing for UGC NET can also appear for SET Exams. University Grant Commission (UGC) conducts two types of entrance exams: NET and SET. NET is conducted at the national level, and SET is for the state level. Those who qualify in the SET exam can apply for the following positions: Assistant Professor. Lecturer. Head of Department.
