same as title, if anyone of you has studied and scored 230+ in cuet pg could you please share strategy and books/educators you referred to? and how many months of dedicated study would require one to score well in this exam?
I have finished my masters last year 2025, and before I even finished my last semester, I have been working. I started as a school counselor and now I WFH for a pvt organization as a therapist. My shift is 9 hrs long and for 5 days and I have started my preparation for UGC net a few weeks ago.
PhD has always been my long term goal but I also don’t want to stop working while i prepare for it. I have only given the December 2025 attempt and I went into with literally zero prep just to see where I stand and scored around 170. I think this also can be attributed to luck only and also did not clear any cut off.
With the coming December attempt I have been trying a lot more and it’s quite challenging. And ofc I know this will be harder and slower process but how do I even go about it.
I have analyzed the question papers and will ofc prioritize the ones with more weightage but I still think I don’t have enough time. For context, I am studying directly from books. I don’t really have faith in studying from others notes that’s not something that would work for me. But the syllabus is sooo exhaustive. Every sub unit is like a 20 something page chapter and I am also one of those people who writes a lot while studying even tho I’m trying to keep that to a minimum.
I really am unable to give more than 3-4 hours on working days and that usually stretches me out a lot. And on top of it I am not able to make any significant dent in the syllabus and I fear I am not retaining much also. Idk. Any suggestions or tips would be appreciated.
Is 3 months prep wise for DEC 2026 NET?
How many hours one needs to give to prep for both jrf and net ?
Any sources to prep like YouTube or any lecture videos or apps and tools?
It would really be helpful.
Thank you.
i had psychology as one of my optional subjects in 11th and 12th. i have completed my B.A., which was a 3 year course with 3 major subjects, from one of the colleges under the university of rajasthan. my total percentage for the 3 years is 77%.
now i am thinking about pursuing a 4th year in psychology under the same college i completed my B.A. from.
should i pursue a 4th year in psychology after B.A.? or should i opt for M.A. in psychology and then M.A. in clinical psychology? What will be more beneficial? I just wanna know the route to become a clinical psychologist in india.
it's very confusing because i have no proper personal guidance.

I want 1 month research internship for the month of December. Most labs I looked at were cognitive science and neuroscience oriented and I have no base in these fields as I am a masters psychology student. I am trying to mail professors and see whether they have any opening and that I will be open to learn new stuff.
But I am starting to loose hope and I really want to upskill myself in research during my masters other than traditional qualitative and quantitative research.
Any suggestions anybody?
I say couple of labs in Christ uni. Does anyone know whether they will give internships?
