UGC NET Result 2019: Procedure and Criteria of Declaration

The National Testing Agency has provided the detailed procedure that it uses in order to declare UGC NET results. It is a simple 6-step process. However it involves some critical calculations, for which, only the exam conducting body has data. Candidates can take note of this process to understand why the cut offs of some subjects are high and some are lower. Also this will explain to you what it means by slots of a subject and category. 

Step 1. Calculation of total slots in UGC NET 2019 Result for Eligibility for Assistant Professor. 

The total slots for eligibility will be equal to 6% of the candidates who have appeared in paper 1 and paper 2 both.

Step 2.  Dividing the total slots category wise. 

Slots are allocated category wise as per extant reservation policies of the government of India. 

Step 3. Comparing marks of UGC NET 2019 candidates with qualifying marks.

Marks are calculated as per the final official answer key, and the same are then normalized as per the normalization formula. Only those candidates who have marks equal to or more than the qualifying marks are considered for the next steps. 

Step 4.  Finding UGC NET 2019 cut off for eligibility for assistant professor, for one subject, for one category. And then for all subjects for all categories.

Let subject = S, category = C

Then, number of candidates to be declared qualified for Eligibility for Assistant Professor in the subject ‘S’ for the category ‘C’ = Number of candidates belonging to the category ‘C’ who appeared in subject ‘S’ and secured qualifying marks of that category (x) total slots derived for category ‘C’ as per Step 2 (÷) total number of candidates belonging to category ‘C’ over all subjects who secure at least qualifying marks. 

This is repeated for all subjects, all categories. 

Step 5. Checking how many of the candidates who are qualifying as per above step have also applied for JRF.

If candidate is in the total number calculated in last step, and had also applied for ‘Eligibility for JRF & Eligibility for Assistant Professor both’, then he or she will come under the JRF consideration zone for UGC NET result 2019.

Step 6.  Finding UGC NET 2019 cut off for Junior Research Fellowship, for one subject, for one category. And then for all subjects for all categories.

Number of candidates to be declared qualified for JRF & Eligibility for Assistant Professor both in Subject ‘S’ for category ‘C’ = Number of candidates belonging to the category ‘C’ who qualified for eligibility for assistant professor in subject ‘S’ and opted for JRF (x) total slots for JRF for category ‘C’ (÷) total number of candidates belonging to the category ‘C’ over all subjects who have opted for JRF and qualified for eligibility for assistant professor.
