F ollow them at the best. Good Luck. Writing skills matter a lot in the NET Examination. Most of the candidates appea ring for the NET examination have a lot of knowledge, but lack writing skills. Y ou should be able to present all the information/knowledge in a coherent and log ical manner, as expected by the examiner. For example: Quoting with facts and su bstantiating your answer with related concepts and emphasizing your point of vie w. Preparations for NET examination should be done intensively. After deciding the questions one should sort out the NET question papers accordi ng to the syllabus topics. If one analyses these questions, after sometime the q uestions are repeated in one form or the other. Prepare a standard answer to the question papers of the previous years. This wil l also make your task easy at the UGC examination. Do Not miss the concepts. Questions asked are of the Masters level examination. Sometimes the questions are conceptual in nature, aimed at testing the comprehension levels of the basic concepts. Get a list of standard textbooks from the successful candidates, or other source s and also selective good notes. The right choice of reading material is importa nt and crucial. You should not read all types of books as told by others. Always target for writing section even while preparing for objective questions. As there is much in common for study and there is little time for preparation fo r the wriiten part II examination. While studying for the subjects, keep in mind that there is no scope for selecti

ve studies in UGC. The whole syllabus must be covered thoroughly. Equal stress a nd weight should be given all the sections of the syllabus. Note that in the ultimate analysis both subjects carry exactly the same amount o f maximum marks. For subjects like Mathematics and Statistics and Geography maps etc, practice is very important. One should also practice other subjects and should not treat th e same examination, as an experience gathering exercise to get a chance for writing mains is a great thing, which you may not get again. Go through the unsolved papers of the previous papers and solve them to stimulat e the atmosphere of the examination. Stick to the time frame. Speed is the very essence of this examination. Hence, t ime management assumes crucial importance. For developing the writing skills, keep writing model answers while preparing fo r the NET examination. This helps get into the habit of writing under time press ure in the Mains examination. Never be over confident with your writing skills. It is too subjective and behav ioral. Develop and follow your own style of writing. Try not to be repetitive and maint ain a flow in the style of your writing. Never try to imitate others in the style of writing. Sequential and systematic style of answering comes after a lot of practice and a nalysis of standard answers. Try to stimulate the actual examination hours to judge the performance and to pl ug any loopholes. Try not to exceed the word limit, as far as possible. Sticking to the word limit that will save time. Besides, the number of marks you achieve are not going to increase even if you exceed the word limit. It s the quality that matters not the q uantity. Revision of subjects is very important. The reason is that you have been prepari ng for months or years together. It is a human tendency to forget something afte r some time. Donot bother yourselves if you are unable to revise everything before examinatio n. Write it legibly as it will simplify the evaluator s task and he can read the an swers easily. Highlight the important points which are important. Follow paragraph writing rather than essay form. A new point should start with a new paragraph. If the question needs answer in point format give it a bullet format. Keep sufficient space between two lines. Try to maintain uniformity in your writing throughout the paper. Under time pressure, the script should not go from bad to worse in the later sta ges of the answer sheets. This may irritate the evaluator. Don t count words after every answer. If you have practiced well you should reflexi vely know the approximate limit you made. Give space and divide it by a dividing line between two questions. Above all be patient and believe in God.
