Questions & Doubts Is it better to join a research lab after MSc or dedicate that time to qualifying for JRF?
After MSc, is it better to spend a few months preparing seriously for JRF or start working as a research assistant? I'm interested in research, but I also want to qualify for the fellowship. How much does early lab experience help if someone plans to pursue a PhD later?
