YES, ofcourse. It is my second year I am pursuing Ph.D. in Mathematics from LPU. To get admission in Ph.D. in LPU, you need to qualify an entrance test called LPU NEST at the first place. After qualifying LPU NEST you have to appear in an interview and qualify it too. Bu to be very honest, if you have studied Masters in detail, it is not difficult at all. The syllabus is always as per the syllabus of UGC NET but the level of question is a bit soft. Any average student can qualify it. The question paper consists of two parts, the first part about reasoning and the second part about the core subject. Then comes the interview part. Once you confidently appear in the interview and your soft-skills are good, you can easily qualify it. Here they check your oral knowledge about your field and the interest in research. On the basis of performance in LPU NEST one is you get the admission and second you can avail the scholarship too. I suggest you go for it, give it a try. All the best. Hope this helps. Thanks.
