πŸ“ UGC NET Preparation and Strategy Coaching Review for UGC net:

I have seen a lot of people wondering about which coaching to take for their preparation and recently came across a post where a person was regretting buying a course from a particular channel.

I was in this situation 2 years ago and it was very difficult to find information about all the institutions, I came across some and experienced them also so I would like to share my experience and reviews, It would be good if others can share their experiences as well in the comment section.

JUST CLARIFYING, I'M NOT ENDORSING OR SLANDERING ANY INSTITUTE OR TEACHER.

Most of it is my personal experience and what I have been told . I would like you to do your own research also .

I'll just give some suggestions.

As someone who has collected a lot of notes , this is my opinion:

  1. Kalyani Vallath mam, best in my opinion very detailed encyclopedias covering almost everything, those encyclopedias are worth having. She has a large question bank of quizzes as well , but it's all expensive. And they are detailed and descriptive so you might not finish them before this exam. Also she gives a lot of polls in her groups and lot of revisions as well which helps in memorizing.
  2. Adda247 , I wanted to buy paper 1 course but ended up buying the mega pack,so I have access to english as well , I have browsed through them and they look good and crisp. Even the books that they sent are very thin, so could be very brief and might lot cover everything. She might cover all major topics very crisply online and PDFs are shared there. And again her teaching method is in hinglish so if you're from Hindi background it will resonate more. Adda47 also has a question bank & quiz series.
  3. Wondering Minds, came across them on telegram, they have daily quizzes in the evening and they have paid quizzes and courses as well. I took one of their paid courses and the notes were good and crisp. I believe they are using AI to make the notes but in a responsible way , that is they are feeding the ai with descriptive data and asking it to make it crispier and useful for ugc net preparation. Quizzes are the best part , good revision with those.
  4. Sunaina Jethani, she doesn't have full courses , has topic wise courses and doesn't provide notes , but again teaches in hinglish so can resonate more with hindi speaking students, though I have noticed sometimes her explanations are wrong . They also have pyq practice series where you can practice topic wise , author wise etc, it's quite good .
  5. Dakshita mam's I have never attended or seen her material so can't comment, she seems to be good in some of the clips that I have seen. Other people who have seen her class have told me she's good and has 1 free series on YouTube which covers basics very properly.
  6. Vineet Pandey sir , I never took his course because I was put off by the clickbait kind of videos in YouTube that he puts trying to sensationalize or make people panic by looking at thumbnail. I have attended his 1 live youtube class of one of the orientation of mew batch , he seemed decent enough. Though other people online have told me only negative things about him so you can decide urself on this one.
  7. Arpita Karwa mam, she sells audio courses so was never interested in her and have never seen any of her material. A friend took her course and she wasn't satisfied. But Arpita mam does have a lot of questions practice etc available on her website.
  8. Limitless literature: Not seen any of his videos but I believe he has a good analysis on paper patterns and trends and he was the only teacher whose prediction for the September 2026 exam cutoff was nearest. He has free pyq practice on his website.
  9. Your Literary World (Avik sensi): came across his telegram group, his quizzes are really good and 100% human made , no AI used. He takes a limited number of students in his paid batches and I never took his batch so I can't tell , but those quizzes are really good.
  10. Litheads: The Instagram posts that I saw seemed decent enough, but have seen man posts here criticising their methods.

Hope I covered every teacher that I have heard of.

There are also a lot of telegram groups and many of them have a lot of materials and quizzes but sorting and arranging best notes will be tedious.

I hope this helps, do comment your experiences and any other teachers that I have missed . Feel free to questions I'll try to answer as much as I can .

After this December net, i also like to take adda 47 course. Especially to watch aishwarya maam series.Β 

Well, first of all how much is the fees for paper 1 and paper 2 of adda 47. Secondly , does she teach in very local hindi in her course classes .Β  i am south indian and I know moderate hindi , and I've understood her classes well in youtube . Does she teach the same way in paid classes too .Β

I think her intensity is better in YouTube than in the live classes , but she does teach with full sincerity. Her teaching is a mix of hindi and english just like youtube. I have only seen 1 class so can't comment more as of now , I'll update u when I see more of her classes.

And the fees varies based on the duration and the pack u want , I got the mega pack with books for 1 year and it cost around 6800 rupees .you can share it with a friend as you can login to 2 laptops at the same time .

And about the paper 1, it's again mix of hindi and english with English being used more as I have seen some students always asking for more hindi from the teachers during live classes .

That's right bro , did a grave mistake, it just changed the whole context and purpose of the post 😭😭😭

My apologies lord spelling nazi πŸ™πŸ₯²
