1. With respect to the UGC NET examination, you have been publishing results of the examination only after the last date of applying for the next examination is over or is approaching! This leads to tremendous wastage of students’ money in that those who are selected also end up applying due to the non publication of the result! Keeping the above in view, please inform the following:

(a) Please give the following dates for the last ten years. Please inform in a suitable table, if possible.
(I) Date on which the UGC NET examination notification was published for all such examination held in last ten years
(II) Date on which the applications for the said examination were to be submitted (i.e. the last date of submission of application forms)
(III) Date on which the UGC NET results were published in the last ten years

(b) What is the total number of candidates in each of the UGC NET examination held in last ten years who applied for the examination but were selected on the basis of the preceding examination…
(I) Either for NET or JRF
(II) For NET only
(III) For JRF

(c) What is the total amount of money collected in last ten years from candidates who applied for the UGC NET examination but were selected for JRF/NET on the basis of the immediately preceding examination?
(d) What is the rationale behind not publishing the UGC NET results before the last date of applications of the next such examination? Please also inform how you think it is not unethical.

2. Please inform the rationale behind not publishing the question papers for the past years.

3. Please agree with or argue against the following popular belief:
The format/style of UGC NET examination is not suitable to test the research skills/acumen of candidates. It is more like the UPSC Civil Services Examination which is unfortunate.

4. Candidates believe that the UGC NET evaluation of answer sheets is not satisfactory and it is an unpredictable examination. In other words, candidates are not selected despite a good performance and the vice versa!
Keeping this in view, please inform about the evaluation of answer sheets in detail. Please include factors like payments made to examiners, selection of evaluators/examiners, site of evaluation (UGC or examiners’ homes), ways to minimize/eliminate partiality/subjectivity in evaluation, modus operandi of evaluation, availability of model answers with examiners, number of answer sheets lost (if any) in recent years etc.

5. Please give the following data in a suitable table. Please inform for each examination held separately.
(a) Number of candidates who applied for the UGC NET examination in last two years.
(b) Number of candidates finally selected for the UGC NET examination as in NET or JRF in last two years.
