Hello Deepika, The cutoff marks for each section is different and can not be sure about it. We can just have a brief idea about the cutoff through the previous year marks. The UGC NET exam was held from 2 to 6 Dec in two shifts. The final cut off marks depends on the various factors like number of candidates appeared in the exam, level of difficulty, attempts in the exam and final cut off marks etc. The cut off marks for the previous year Education subject paper was 58% for JRF & Assistant and 49% for only assistant. You might get selected for only assistant if the final cut off goes not so high.

Hope it will help you, all the best!

Hello Aarthi,
Yes, you are eligible for NET exam. The SET and NET exams are held for the selection of candidates for lectureship and junior research fellowship. The difference between the NET and SET is that SET is eligible for state level universities hence called state eligibility test while NET qualified candidates are eligible for National level universities or colleges and stands for National eligibility test. To appear for NET exam, you must have post graduation degree. As you have cleared SET exam, you are eligible to apply for assistant professor posts in the state level institutes, universities. To apply for other state and national level universities, you should apply for the NET exam. There is no other difference apart from the state level eligibility.
