Hi,

Paper-1 is most important part of UGC NET, because it can give you significant advantage over other students by maximizing your overall score. Let us understand nature of Paper-1:

Syllabus of Paper-1 is General. That means anything can be asked. There is no single book/source available which can cover all 60 questions. Even if there is some source available, it will take 6 months to study that.

After detailed analysis of last year papers, our expert team has identified some interesting insights.

  • Remember that only 50 questions are to be attempted out of 60 for Paper-1. So you do not have to study everything. To score high, the secret lies in "CHOOSING" your favorite 50 questions.
  • There are few topics in Paper-1, for which you need 5X hours of study to get a question correct, while for some other topics, you need X hours of study to get a question correct.
  • You will always (almost) get a question each on Deductive Reasoning, Analogical Argument, 4 types of definitions (Lexical, Stipulative, Precising, Persuasive).
  • One question is appearing consistently from Government of India target of 175 GW renewable power (for which you have to remember just 3-4 lines).
  • One Question from 10-12 types of research (every time).
  • Very easy 4-5 questions on teaching and classroom concepts.
  • One easy question on conversion from decimal to binary or othwerwise.
  • On the other hand, you must go through 300-400 pages of Polity and Indian Constitution to get 2-3 questions attempted.

Thanks
