How to attempt this CSIR NET test

CSIR NET lets you choose which questions to attempt in each part, so the skill being tested is selection as much as knowledge. Scan each part first, answer the ones you are certain of, and attempt only as many risky questions as the negative marking in your paper justifies.

  1. Attempt it in one sitting with the timer on. Do not pause to look things up.
  2. Use Mark for Review on questions you want to revisit instead of spending too long on them.
  3. After submitting, open the solution for every wrong and every guessed question.
  4. Retake the questions you missed a few days later to check the concept has stuck.
