Can someone please explain why there are two separate dates for NET exam 2018: 2nd December and 16th December?

Hello,

UGC NET exam will be conducted in Computer Based Mode from December session. Therefore, the examination authority has kept different dates for UGC NET exam so that it can be conducted smoothly.

Thank you!!

Dear Student,

Your question is quite valid. I would like to mention that this time the exam is being conducted by newly formed National Testing Agency(NTA). It will be an Online examination and will be conducted in two sessions each day. For smooth conduct of examination without causing undue inconvenience to the large number of aspirants this has been done to ensure adequate availability of properly functioning Computer Systems.

I hope this helps.

Hello Pooja,

The exam conducting body of UGC NET has changed from Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) to National Testing Agency (NTA) i.e. from the December session onwards, UGC NET 2018 will be conducted by NTA. The exam will be held online in two shifts between December 9 and 23 on Saturdays and Sundays.

As per the recent news, National Testing Agency (NTA) will be the exam conducting body from the next session of UGC NET on the place of CBSE.

NTA will decide to conduct the NET exam in online mode from 9th December to 23rd December 2018 in two shifts per day on Saturday and Sunday.

The online application process will be started from 1st September 2018. It will be ended on 30th September 2018.

The syllabus for UGC NET Dec 2018, eligibility criteria and exam pattern are same as per the previous year.

For JRF, the maximum age limit is 30 years on the other hand for the assistant professor there is no upper age limit.

Hii

As per the official news, National Testing Agency (NTA) is going to conduct UGC NET 2018 December session from December 9 to 23, in online mode in two shifts each day on Saturdays and Sundays.

Still have any query feel free to reply back.

All the best.
