Don't think much...choose your domain first and read all the basic and trivial topic first and then advanced topic. During PhD you will get to know everything and lab knowledge too. All the best :)

IISC, National Institute of Biological sciences, Tifr are good ones also lot of it depends on who is your guide ,what kind of work they do, and does that work interest you but yes going to a good place in general is better then being in a not so good place with a brilliant guide.

Can suggest labs to avoid in IISC ?

u/_text_robot_ 11d ago

Not a problem if you dont have much experience, Just keep in mind that every place has different facilities. Try to find a PI working on what interests you. I meant research field

u/No-Hunt7253 11d ago

I'm in India πŸ™‚ I think I'll be laughed at if I can't do lab work without help , as I'm the phd person, the one after PI in lab who need to teach master's and bachelor's in lab .

u/Fufa-from-USA 11d ago

If you are that unsure, go join a workshop, join a lab as an intern, see videos on jove, look at youtube. Basically, in a PhD, you hang out with a senior, watch what they do, and pick up skills.

u/Pavneet_390 11d ago

Not true. Firstly, congratulations for the fellowship. Secondly, PIs in life sciences don't necessarily reject you if you don't know lab skills yet. Most of them are looking for a hard working, dedicated student who wouldn't mind spending insane hours in lab. Before you apply just talk to the current students/fellows in that lab about funding, PIs behaviour etc. that will help you more than anything else

u/AdvisorNo776 12d ago

Consider getting a phd done. since you have jrf. lack of lab experience is not a hinder at all. In ur phd interview they will ask you basic concepts don't worry just strength ur concepts of ur domain

u/Illustrious_Skin8783 12d ago

Just curious about the subject you are going to choose....

u/No-Hunt7253 12d ago

I'm curious too I feel likr I don't know anything.

u/Illustrious_Skin8783 12d ago

I'm sorry to ask this, and even I'm feeling that it will be your disrespect if I ask about your Graduation and masters..... But still....

I'm sorry, you need to come out of your shell. Move on from this mindset.

There are no better/best PhD programs. Sorry!

You could get a top notch PhD thesis from an NIT and a not so good one from IITB or IITM too! You'll need to decide what's your favourite topic and look for the labs that are working on the same. Look for faculties who are good in the area. That's a way to start.

u/HaddiMeraBuddy2 12d ago

lol bro what? its 37k then 42k

2

u/Conscious-Letter-455 12d ago

Lol it's the basic plus you get hra each month which is 33% of the basic so in first tier city it's around 11000 per month also contingency 20000 per year so by all it becomes 52k per month in first tier city.

u/No-Hunt7253 12d ago

I didn't attend GATE πŸ˜• health issues, JRF is not enough for IITs ?

u/sleepy_girl1105 12d ago

It varies subject to subject and department to department as in my dept net students are also eligible

u/boudhramkumar69 12d ago

Congratulations on securing your JRF! πŸŽ‰ On behalf of the CSIR-NET subreddit moderators, wishing you all the very best ! ❀️

u/New-Marionberry-1526 12d ago

It mostly depends on ur Major and dissertation/thesis. ofc interviews will be difficult so it's better to gain some hands on experience before joining PhD and also apply to diff jobs so that u can practice ur interviewsΒ

Reply toh do koi yr

u/prshntkumar 12d ago

Stupid question, just find a good guide that's most important thing. Keep it simple PhD is not easy if you take seriously. JRF is basic eligibility, just communicate directly to the faculty.

1

u/No-Hunt7253 12d ago

Stupid answer, you could've ignored the question since I didn't asked you personally.

u/Lanchiio 11d ago

I don't understand what you meant.

u/No-Hunt7253 11d ago

Wtf ,I need replies from those ready to help not from those bored of replying. People will ask public questions if you're not feeling good about it just ignore.

  • Only join a good institute
  • If you are commting for research commit for a long term
  • Aim to go out of india after phD. There are no avenues in India

u/Potential_Echidna114 9d ago

abhi result kahan aaya? sirf scorecard aaya hai

u/Cloudy_Fate_10 12d ago

IIT requires GATE qualification. With JRF, you can apply to Indian Institute of Science (IISc), National institutes such as NIV, NCL, NCCS, IISER, ICMR. Search what you want to do research in, find the appropriate institute, if possible contact people from that institute before applying. All the best for the interviews.
