I cleared ugc net in economics for assistance professor and I need to know the probability of selection in phd in a good university without jrf. Should I apply anywhere if yes can you guys suggest me some names of the Universities

Hi All, I appeared for ugc net and I missed by jrf by 4 marks which is 2 questions; how likely is that I can avail NFOBC for the same?

I want to know from the achievers what is the difference between someone who cleared net and someone who cleared jrf...where does the difference lie ...the gap?

Does anyone know where I can find good practice questions and mocks for ugc net economics ?

I'm going to write my UGC NET exam in the month of Dec or in the month of June so i need to know the ones who have cracked the exams which faculties and YouTube channels ya'll have studied from for paper 1

Thank you.

I have basic knowledge of history being a upsc student , please anyone tell me the right approach nd sources to clear it in one go ..

What went wrong in this attempt I gave 100% and fall from 184 to 142

Can me anybody guide, how they prepared for their UGC NET LAW exam? When did they start the preparation? How easy it is to clear JRF exam ?

I cleared JRF in History.

I was always an average student, but knew one thing I love history, I chose it and I'll make the best out of it. Idk what the future holds, but it is definitely the first step. It'll be chaotic, messy and full of perpetual struggle. But one must imagine Sisyphus happy. Congratulations to me, best birthday gift ever (it's on 31st). 😭💖

I qualified for PhD-only in UGC NET (184 marks), but I want to clear JRF. How do I prepare consistently with ADHD?

I recently qualified for PhD-only with 184 marks, but my goal is to clear JRF this time. I want to start preparing now instead of waiting until the last month. Usually, when the exam is close, I put a lot of pressure on myself and somehow study almost the whole day, but I struggle badly with consistency before that.

I have problems with focus and zoning out, and I'm currently not taking ADHD medication. I can sit with my books or a YouTube lecture for hours, but if I take a 30-minute break, it can easily become a 2–3 hour break. I also lose track of time scrolling or doing other things. If I get up to do chores, I often lose the motivation to come back and study.

I also forget things easily, so I end up rereading the same topics repeatedly. For my previous attempt, I mainly focused on PYQs and the most important units, which helped me qualify. But I'm weak in maths and reasoning in Paper 1, and I didn't prepare those properly.

I'd really like advice from people who have cleared NET/JRF, especially those with ADHD or similar struggles:

How do you structure your study day?

How do you prevent breaks from becoming hours?

What revision method actually helped you retain things?

How much did you rely on PYQs/MCQs vs books/lectures?

How did you improve maths and reasoning for Paper 1?

How did you start early and stay consistent without burning out?

I'm not looking for "just study 8–10 hours a day" advice 😭. I want to know what actually worked for you, especially if you struggle with focus/executive function. And what approach should I take to qualify.

I'd appreciate any practical advice!

I have cleared UGC NET in Law with PhD only (Category 3) , what are my options ? I want to pursue a PhD so when are admission opportunities in Delhi - NCR based universities set to begin? Pls comment if anyone has any idea about the notification timelines for Law and legal studies PhD, since Category 3 score is valid for 1 year duration. Will appreciate any kind of help, thanks in advance!
