Hello,
The SET (State Eligibility Test) Exam is conducted for selecting the candidates for lectureship. If you want to appear in SET Exam then it is required to complete the Masters' degree with a minimum of 55% aggregate marks. Candidates who are in the final year of their master's degree are also eligible to apply for this exam. You should also know that qualifying in SET Exam will only help you to appear for the post of lecturer in colleges or institutes in the respective states only. If you want to apply for any college or institute across India, then you should appear in the UGC NET Exam. The UGC NET Exam is also conducted for the same purpose. The eligibility criteria of the SET & NET Exam are also similar. So, I would like to suggest you appear in NET Exam. The exam is conducted twice a year (June and December). You can apply for any of these two exams.
