Ph.D

Well, the entrance exams for pursuing a PhD degree are seen to be highly competitive, with fewer seats available at top universities as opposed to the large number of applicants. Further, the success rate differs on the basis of the particular exam you're taking, the university you're eyeing, and the specialisation you're interested in.

In general, getting admission to PhD courses is no cakewalk and requires you to have a strong academic hold on the discipline, excellent research knowledge and potential, and a compelling research proposal.

The time needed to prepare for the Ph.D. entrance exam cannot be stated with any certainty, but you should start preparing at least 10 to 12 months in advance because the exam is generally considered challenging, requiring you to have thorough knowledge of the discipline and research potential.

Starting early will give you enough time to go through the maximum topics in the exam syllabus, plan a good revision strategy, and increase your chances of doing well and getting shortlisted for PhD admission.

The entrance exams for PhD courses are generally difficult to crack, given the research-oriented focus they demand, along with excellent subject knowledge and critical thinking abilities. Since the doctorate degree is the highest level of academic qualification, the entrance exam that is the entry point for the same is also challenging, demanding excellent preparation on your part.

Further, the difficulty level of the exam also depends on the number of applicants, last years' results, and student feedback. You should work hard and practice previous year question papers to do well in the exam.
