UGC NET

Yes, of course, it is possible to crack the UGC NET Exam in one year. The UGC NET exam consists of two papers, paper 1 is a general paper, and paper 2 is a subject-specific paper. Both papers contain 10 units each. Marks are not equally distributed among units. There are no negative marks for both paper. You should give equal importance to both papers. Because getting 90 percent marks on one paper without qualifying for the second paper is worthless. Know the syllabus then start study from easy topics. Then you should move towards the previous year's questions to understand the important topics and pattern of asking questions in frequent years.

The NET is conducted twice a year to determine eligibility for the JRF and Andhra Pradesh, and the syllabus for the exam in each subject is huge and in-depth. As the UGC made NET mandatory for the recruitment of Andhra Pradesh in universities and government colleges, every aspirant, including those who have completed their Ph.D. also wrote the exam. To qualify for the UGC NET you have to compete with the best candidates among those who aspire to become assistant professors or researchers in universities or research institutions. In my opinion, there is no single book that will cover the syllabus, so you have to read multiple books that are prescribed for PG. I suggest some tips that might help you.
1- Begin with the subject you are interested in.
2- If possible, make important notes that will help you during revision.
3- Solve the previous year's question papers on your own.
4- It would be great if you could read for 45 hours daily.
5- Reading multiple books depends on your requirements because you may not find every topic in every book.
6- You should focus on the subject, which will help you score well.
7- You have to review subjects before the exam.
