One can not compare a student who has conducted disciplined research under M.Phil and PHD with a student who is evaluated through a one day exam (NET). Spending years in doing research under mphil and phd is not comparable to passing a one day exam as the types of question asked in NET mainly are not relevant to the subject one teaches to college students.Sonal Shahanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00141183888320178256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4531765274219955373.post-62729117852288764072012-07-27T15:44:40.446+05:302012-07-27T15:44:40.446+05:30UGC should not make it mandatory for m.phil and ph...UGC should not make it mandatory for m.phil and phd holders, they are already able and eligible for teaching in colleges. i think phd or m.phil should be the eligibilty for teaching in college/ univ instead of NET.

I took that 2008 exam and this is really a journey down nightmare lane for me, Sachin!<br /><br />I am entirely clueless about the rationale behind the NET exams, specially the compulsory First paper.<br /><br />Even when it comes to subject papers (Paper 2 n 3) the syllabus which appears in the UGC guidelines for ENGLISH is the 'shortest' : From Chaucer to contemporary Period! <br /><br />Are we supposed to be Literary Databases in order to become lecturers??!<br /><br />Moreover there are rumours that the selection procedure too is not very transparent. Managing to give a good exam(one needs Ladyluck!) is no guarantee for selection. There are 'regional' and 'zonal' calculations which determine your fate. <br /><br />National ELIMINATION Test is worse than a farce.Rajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06345731374091873058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4531765274219955373.post-21937093397424551732010-06-05T13:57:22.684+05:302010-06-05T13:57:22.684+05:30things like these make an aspiring academician lik...things like these make an aspiring academician like me absolutely hopeless and disillusioned. no wonder the higher education of our country is in ruins. just see the plight in which our state universities are. education is meant to be evenly distributed. otherwise what is the use of having something as the UGC or NET.<br />after reading these depressing facts about the NET, i'm seriously looking for back up career options.<br />it is sad. there is nothing more to say :(amrit.whoamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00150369891681121936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4531765274219955373.post-30272454539896864122010-05-06T20:30:15.946+05:302010-05-06T20:30:15.946+05:30Totally agree!

I appeared for the Dec 2008 NET and it's not just in the general paper that we had such vague and pointless questions, but in paper 2 and 3 as well, like arranging a writer's works in a chronological order, etc. I'm taking the June exam, but I'm completely clueless as to what to read and where to begin! The only thing I'm sure about is to carry a good luck charm (just to test whether such things work or not :p)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4531765274219955373.post-88066126533710396032010-04-15T18:34:04.578+05:302010-04-15T18:34:04.578+05:30I had heard back in college that the NET exam was ...I had heard back in college that the NET exam was 'tough'...but this is just nuts!

In June 2007, my one of the classmates qualified NET. He was asked "Which question you attempted in last section of 40 marks? and answer he gave was "I attempted question based on post-colonial theory" Questions asked in that exam were<br /><br />Poetry as Social Practice<br />OR<br />The City in Modern Literature<br />OR<br />The Tradition of Fantasy in modern American fiction<br />OR<br />Influence of Psychological theories on Contemporary Indian English Novel<br />OR<br />Translator as Author<br /><br />Another friend of mine from History department qualified NET. He was unable to answer the simplest question. Who is the chancellor of Shivaji University, even provided with the clue that Chancellor for all Maharashtra' Universities is the same person. he is Assistant Professor in University Department. My assistant in college is NET/SET/SLET affected he is not permanent even after 14 years teaching career. he is research guide and published almost dozen research articles.Dr. Vishwanath Bitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15436753615262373979noreply@blogger.com
