Authors Opinion, , Welcome, it gives us great pleasure to present/introduce one of the unique book for all of, Graduate ‘as well as Post Graduate students from chemical sciences branch those are willing to, crack CSIR-UGC-NET-JRF & GATE. This book will also constructive to get ready for prestigious state, and national level competitive exams such as UGC-SLET (SET), IIT-JAM; PET, TIFR, IISc, BARC,, ONGC and DRDO in Chemistry or Chemical Science related branches., , Most common question asked by students is “how should I prepare for this exam?”, , One of the best and easy method to crack any of these exams is t, Y — Go through the syllabus and pattern of examination, , , , >, Prepare according to the syllabus, Collect the previous question papers, , Solve the topic wise questions, after studying and reading that particular topic, , SNM OK, , This will not only improve the confidence levels to face any exam but also in-depth knowledge of, , respective field/ topic. t, In this book we make an attempt to provide topic wise questions that are asked from last many, question papers of CSIR-NET/ SET/ GATE of Chemical Science branch. We try to cover most of the, syllabus topics wise in this book. Questions from more than 25 topics are included in these books which, are frequently asked in CSIR-NET/ SET/ GATE exams. The previously asked questions are not repeated, exactly in the same format. However, previously asked questions are repeated by modifying the, questions in a different pattern/ format. One of the most essential thing is that, although modified, questions are different, but the concept and logic behind it is nearly same. Hence, if you go through, previously solved question papers and prepare a note of frequently asked facts, then it will be very much, worthwhile to crack the competitive exams such as CSIR-UGC-NET/JRF etc. Now-a-days comparative, exam are applied everywhere to screen the suitable candidate. However, the percentage of qualifying, students is varied from 1-10 %. These topic-wise questions bank offer a rich store-house of conceptual, questions to check the theory and understanding. In addition to this, the carefully graded challenging., questions that are asked in CSIR-NET/ GATE exam bring a special perspective in teaching and learning, context. Thus, the present book will be definitely important to students. Furthermore, the book will also, be very important for Lecturers/ Professors for Undergraduate and Post Graduate university level, , teaching to build up a competitive exam aspect in students,, , - Authors, , Se,
