If you're gearing up for the UGC NET exam, one of the most strategic steps you can take is including Previous Year Question Papers (PYQs) in your practice routine. At ANSS Academy, our mock test series now enhances your preparation with real PYQs alongside thoughtfully designed expected questions—supercharging your readiness for both Paper I (General Aptitude) and Paper II (Subject-specific).
Why Previous Year Question Papers Are Crucial
- Realistic Exam Exposure: Solving past question papers familiarizes you with the exam’s format, question types, and difficulty level.
- Recognition of Trends: PYQs highlight recurring themes and high-frequency topics, guiding your revision strategy.
- Time Management & Confidence: Practicing with actual exam questions under timed conditions sharpens your speed and builds confidence.
- Pattern Awareness: Tracking evolving styles across years helps you anticipate future patterns.
How to Access Official PYQs
You can access authentic past UGC NET question papers directly from the National Testing Agency (NTA):
- Go to the official UGC NET site: www.nta.ac.in
- Navigate to the "Previous Year Question Papers/ Mock Test" section.
- Select the desired Exam, year and session (e.g., June or December 2024–2025).
- Choose between Paper I or Paper II, and your subject code if needed, then download the PDF/ Practice PYQ.
This ensures you're practicing with accurate, original content guaranteed by the exam-conducting body.
