In a notification issued by the University Grants Commission (UGC), the dates for the UGC-NET exam, scheduled from April 20 to May 13, have been confirmed. However, a surprising overlap has emerged as the UGC-NET exam coincides with the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) exam on June 16.
Prospective candidates aiming to appear for both exams now face a challenging predicament due to the clash in dates. The UGC-NET exam holds significant importance for those pursuing careers in academia and research, while the UPSC exam is crucial for aspirants seeking to join the esteemed civil services of the nation.
The clash in examination dates has sparked concerns among candidates, as it presents a dilemma regarding prioritization and preparation strategies. With both exams offering diverse career opportunities, candidates are left to navigate the conflicting schedules and make crucial decisions.
Authorities from both the UGC and UPSC are yet to address the issue formally, leaving candidates anxiously awaiting clarification or possible rescheduling. As the situation unfolds, candidates are advised to stay updated with official announcements and prepare accordingly to tackle this unforeseen challenge.
