NET examination results are out on the web as of yesterday. Please visit the following link to know more—- http://www.ugc.ac.in/inside/netresults.html

The NET is the entrance examination for people seeking Junior Research Fellowship in esteemed Central laboratories and Lecturership positions in colleges all across India. It is highly competitive. Graduates who have finished their Master’s degree requirements successfully are eligible to be placed. The results are listed as per registration numbers given prior to the examination. There are two steps to the examinations. The first part is an objective-type paper and the second one requires longer answers. There are many people who find this as an avenue to fulfill their dreams. People who give the examination may find the run of the mill IT career as a straitjacket and find fulfillment in helping others succeed. I do hope that the UGC increases the number of seats in the Fellowship category to encourage more research in the country.
