National Eligibility Test

The National Eligibility Test (NET) is a standardised test conducted at the national level by various agencies of the Ministry of Education, Government of India. It assesses candidates' eligibility for research fellowships, specifically the Junior Research Fellowship (JRF), Lectureship (LS, or Assistant Professor category) and, in some cases, the Senior Research Fellowship (SRF). Being one of the hardest and competitive tests, the Junior Research Fellowship (JRF) is widely considered a prestigious and coveted fellowship in India, with an almost 0.7% success rate, and a 6-7% success rate for the Assistant Professor category.
