UGC NET is a national-level exam. It tests eligibility for Junior Research Fellowship (JRF) and Assistant Professor posts.
No, UGC NET is not always mandatory for PhD admission. Many universities have their own entrance tests.
Scoring well in UGC NET, especially for JRF, can waive university-specific PhD entrance exams.
A good UGC NET score, particularly JRF, often means a monthly stipend during your PhD research.
Always check the specific PhD admission criteria of the universities you are interested in applying to.
Start early! Understand the syllabus, practice previous papers, and focus on your subject knowledge.
