With the little time left for the exam, candidates should avoid random study and focus on a structured preparation plan for Paper 1 and Paper 2.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As per the preparation strategy suggested by Aditi Sharma Mam, candidates need to have different stages in their preparation process, set a target score out of 300 marks, select a strong paper and begin preparing important topics and reserve the last few days for revision and practice tests. The strategy focuses on 90 days of disciplined preparation, with separate plans for Paper 1 and Paper 2.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a style=\"display: inline-block;background: #e53935;color: #fff;padding: 12px 28px;border-radius: 6px;text-decoration: none;font-weight: bold\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jrfadda.com\/courses\/ugc-net\">Join UGC NET Online Course \u2013 Click Here<\/a><\/p>\n<h2><b>UGC NET JRF December 2026 Preparation Strategy<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The first step is to stop preparing without a clear target.

Hence, the candidates need to plan on the marks that they would like to secure in each of the two papers. The key thing here is knowing where you will be able to get more marks. In case you are good at Paper 1, then you can plan on getting more marks in Paper 1.\u00a0 If Paper 2 is your stronger area, you can aim for a higher score there. This is the divide-and-conquer approach to preparation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"How to Crack UGC NET JRF in Dec 2026?
