A Quick Recap: What Is UGC NET?

The University Grants Commission National Eligibility Test (UGC NET) is conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA) for determining the eligibility of Indian nationals for:

  • Assistant Professorship

  • Junior Research Fellowship (JRF)

The exam is held twice a year, and the June 2025 session is expected to take place between June 16–19, across multiple subjects and shifts.

Lifestyle-Friendly Preparation Tips

1. Focus on Mental Fitness, Not Just Memory

Your brain is your best friend right now—so don’t exhaust it. Mix your study schedule with short brain breaks.

  • Pomodoro Technique: Study for 25 minutes, then take a 5-minute break.

  • Mind Dumping: Journaling at night clears anxiety so you sleep better.

  • Affirmations: Use phrases like “I’m learning every day” to keep confidence up.

2. Nutrition > Caffeine Crashes

Swapping coffee for coffee for yet another coffee? It might be time to rethink.

  • Brain-boosting snacks: Include almonds, bananas, and dark chocolate in your routine.

  • Stay hydrated: Even mild dehydration can lower concentration.

  • Don’t skip meals: Your brain needs glucose to process information efficiently.

3. Sleep Smarter, Not Lesser

Sleep-deprived study marathons do more harm than good. Lack of sleep impairs recall, attention, and even emotional control.

  • Aim for at least 6–7 hours of quality sleep.

  • Cut screen time 30 minutes before bed.

  • Avoid heavy late-night meals or last-minute revision in bed.

4. Make Revision Visual & Interactive

The syllabus can be intense, especially for paper 2 (subject-specific). Turn dull content into memory-friendly formats:

  • Mind Maps

  • Flashcards

  • Quizzes with friends

  • Sticky note walls

5. Choose Smart Study Resources

With YouTube channels, Telegram groups, and websites everywhere, don’t get lost in the noise. Stick to credible sources:

  • NTA’s official syllabus PDF

  • Books by Arihant, Trueman’s, Pearson

  • Previous year’s papers (PYQs)

  • Mock tests by GradeUp, Unacademy, or Testbook

UGC NET is important—but it’s not your identity.

No scorecard can measure your potential, your growth, or your journey. Study with intention, not obsession.

If you come out with new skills, more confidence, and better self-care—that, too, is a win.
