This year Nust decided to give three chances to the students before applying for admissions in Nust. Now the question arises will it affect the merit somehow?
The answer is both yes and no.
Let me explain this point.
There were two sessions for NET 2013 and one session for NET 2012. Everyone expected that the merit will be much high. But the result was opposite to what we predicted. The merit remained almost the same. There was a difference but very very small. Same can be predicted for the coming year. However it also depends on the type of the test you people will be facing.
However at this stage its not wise to predict the merit of the coming year, leave it for the upcoming posts :)
There are some questions which students keep on asking about NET 2014, in this post I would try to answer all those questions.
The paper based test will be conducted only once in June-July, however there will be three sessions for the computer based tests.

The expected dates of the three tests (NET) are as follows:
How do I get registered for NET?
The registration process will be online. You have to make an account on the website https://ugadmissions.nust.edu.pk/ when the registrations will start and fill in the form.
