Introduction to UGC NET Economics

UGC NET Economics is a core subject for aspirants aiming to build careers in teaching, research, policy analysis, and economic consultancy. It focuses on understanding how economies function at micro and macro levels, how markets allocate resources, and how governments design policies to promote growth, stability, and social welfare.

The examination evaluates a candidate’s ability to apply economic theory, mathematical tools, and data analysis to real-world problems. From consumer behavior and production theory to monetary policy and international trade, the syllabus demands conceptual clarity and analytical precision.

At ANSS Academy, our UGC NET Economics mock tests are designed to strengthen problem-solving skills, improve numerical accuracy, and build exam confidence for the 2026 cycle.

UGC NET June and December Sessions

The UGC NET examination is conducted twice every year in two major cycles:

1. June Session

The June session offers candidates an early opportunity to assess their preparation level and become familiar with the quantitative and analytical depth of the subject. It helps identify key areas such as microeconomics, econometrics, and Indian economy that require focused revision.

2. December Session

The December session is generally more competitive and preferred by aspirants aiming for JRF qualification. With additional months of structured preparation, candidates can revise advanced models, practice numerical problems, and strengthen their exam strategy through repeated mock tests.

Both sessions follow the same official syllabus, exam pattern, and marking scheme, making consistent preparation essential throughout the year.
