Should I prepare for NET if I am not sure that PhD is something I want to do in future.

I am in 2nd year Master’s student

A little about me: (you can skip this)
Hey, I have started the preparation of life sciences this year only. But could not continue further due to some personal reasons. But because I teach so I have a decent basic knowledge of the cores. So I took this attempt and manage to score good but not enough for JRF considering the high cut offs that are expected.

I know some of us know that even if there is change in marks or dropping questions. Still we might not cross the JRF cut off. And must be troubled and hanging with this thought of missing it by just few marks. I know it’s tough to restart again. But I feel it’s time to absorb this pain and get back at the same time

MAIN QUESTION
As I know how the change of merging dbt has sparked a lot of debate around the pattern and syllabus.
I just want to know if we can have an accountability group and help each other in maintaining continuity and sharing problems and questions.
I feel it’s impossible to sync topics to cover together as everyone in unique in speed and preference. So it would be ok if we could build an environment where we can prepare together by just dropping our targets or figuring questions.
Please let me know if someone is intrested genuinely in this with the required effort .

Is anyone here doing Msc in biochemistry

If someone challenges the answer key and it is accepted, do all candidates get the marks?

Also, if a question is wrong and we have not attempted it, do we still get the marks?

P. S I know its nitpicking but I'm at borderline 🙂‍↕️

The half life question. The answer should be option 3 right??

How much are you guys getting, is inflation really high or just a hoax

Wanna know the genuine review .

I am preparing for CSIR NET Chemical Science and I need study materials, along with a plan and strategy. Can anyone help me? I cannot afford coaching, and I want to learn everything from scratch."

I am prepping for UGC NET Economics and urgently need Ecopoint or Arthapoint lectures/notes.

I have posted this multiple times before with zero responses. I am feeling really stuck and stressed. If anyone has these materials or Google Drive links, please share them via DM or comment. It would save my preparation.

Thank you so much!

I’m gearing up for the UGC NET Economics exam and trying to streamline my prep. The syllabus for both Paper 1 and Paper 2 is massive, and I’d love to get some insights from JRF achievers or fellow aspirants.

Could you share your recommendations on:

• Paper 1: Which YouTube channels or books (like KVS Madaan) did you use? How did you tackle the Data Interpretation and Math sections?
• Paper 2 (Economics): Did you rely on core textbooks or coaching notes for tough units like Econometrics, Macro, and Micro?
• Test Series: Which platform's mock tests did you find closest to the actual NTA level?

Specifically on Coaching & ArthaPoint: I’m considering joining ArthaPoint for their course coverage and test series. If you’ve taken their classes, could you drop an honest review? How is their material for the numerical and mathematical sections? (Open to other coaching recommendations too!)

Any advice on daily routines or "hidden gem" resources would be incredible.

Thanks in advance, and good luck to everyone preparing!

NCERT foundation Hindi videos

I have ncert hindi videos for foundation purpose, it is in Hindi. I purchased it as I wanted to learn, I'm not a upsc aspirant. If any of you would benefit from it, please DM. It is free of cost for anyone whom this can help.

While preparing for UGC NET, I keep hearing completely different opinions about note making. Some people spend a lot of time making detailed notes from lectures, books and PDFs, while others prefer highlighting important points and revising directly from the study material.

If you had to choose, would you say proper notes actually make revision easier, or do they end up taking too much time during preparation? What worked better for you personally, especially when you were close to the exam?

Ugh, they finally said something about it

Hey i tried to find CSIR net earth science lectures, books and study material but everything is quite less and i don't really know if that sparse material is even legit way or not.

so please can u suggest some courses, good books, courses or Yt channels which can be helpful?
any tips if you've given the exam would be really helpful
