 Hi friends, welcome to my channel. I am Arpata Karwa and in this video I am going to be giving you a complete and detailed review of shift one paper of UGC net English that happened on 13th of October 2022. Now I'm really sorry for the delayed review. I know that I'm a little late in releasing the review but that is because I wanted to give you a detailed and authentic review as opposed to a superficial review where I just speak to like two three students and based on the questions that they remember or how they felt the paper was I give a review on a YouTube channel like mine where there are five lakh students who are listening to me. So I wanted to give you a detailed and authentic review and that I did after researching about the question paper. I spoke to almost all my students who are enrolled in the courses then I spoke to a lot of students who are connected to me on WhatsApp and other social media platform and based on that I gathered all the questions and I also understood what they felt about the paper. So after receiving so many calls and messages and after having zoom live with my registered students where I spoke face to face with all my students and I understood what they felt about the paper. I am finally here with a detailed review about shift one paper of UGC net English and I'm also going to share my critical insight in this video on what was the paper pattern, how was this different or similar to the previous years and what should be the preparation strategy. I am also going to share light on the expected cut off that I feel is going to come after looking at and analyzing the paper. Okay but before I move forward I would just like to give you a small message that we have a WhatsApp number that is displayed on screen and if you want to know the question paper and if you want to get your hands on the answer key then you can drop a WhatsApp message on the number displayed there and my team is going to provide you with the question paper as well as the answer key and we are also going to keep you notified about all the important UGC net examination detail. Now let us finally go and talk about the question paper of shift one UGC net English but if we want to understand the question paper and see whether it was from the syllabus or it was out of the syllabus we need to first know the syllabus right. Now if you look at the UGC net syllabus that is given on their official website it just talks about 10 units drama poetry fiction nonfiction they have not given any topics that needs to be studied in all those units so it's a very indicative syllabus and nobody can clear net just by referring to that syllabus and that is the mistake what most of the students do so in order to analyze whether the paper was from the syllabus or not we need to first know the syllabus and to do that we are going to go to ArpitaKarwa.com where in after analyzing past 20 years paper we have finally made a very descriptive syllabus of UGC net English and we are very proud to tell you that we are the only only institute all over the world which has such a detailed syllabus available on the website and such a detailed syllabus which we cover in our online course also. So we have analyzed the question paper we have seen the trends and based on that we have divided the entire UGC net syllabus into 13 modules and we cover all these 13 modules in our online course even if you are not a part of the online course you have free access to the syllabus and I recommend that anybody who wants to prepare for UGC net should look at it as the primary source of material and from there they should start preparing their notes or they should start referring to other books but they should first of all try to cover all the topics that we have listed in the syllabus so there are approximately 850 topics that are there in the UGC net syllabus from which every year questions are asked so it is very important that you first look at the syllabus and then from that syllabus let us see that what kind of questions were asked and were they from the syllabus or were they out of the syllabus okay. So let us look at the questions one by one I have gathered all the questions from the students and segregated them module wise so that it is easier for me to present it in front of you as you know that we at arpatakarva.com love to structure and simplify your preparation and the same thing we have done with the question paper that we have received from so many students so if they look at module number one which is British literature let us see how many questions were asked so approximately the idea is that about 30 to 40 questions were asked from British literature few of the questions that we've received from the students are they have asked questions from the popular tribal translation which is a topic that we cover under Elizabethan literature so they have talked about Coverdale's Bible when I'm talking about Elizabethan literature I always say that because of the advent of printing press in the entire Britain a lot of Bible translations were happening so you must know who were the writers associated did they translate only the New Testament or did they translate the Old Testament as well then there was a question from PB Shelly's unfinished work then a question from Harald Pinter they've given a statement and a conclusion they asked us to analyze it then there was a Chaucer question from Joffrey Chaucer's House of Fame there was a question from Thomas Middleton's Women Beware Women they asked the publication date of this work then there was a question from Dante Gabriel Rossetti and a work associated like a movement a group associated with D. G. Rossetti that was fleshly school of poetry so you must know that how was it associated with D. G. Rossetti then they were matching of the ears question where they gave four works and they gave four ears and the common works were Wasteland by T. S. Eliot Sons and Lovers by D. H. Lawrence so you have to match them with the ear similar earwise question was asked from Shakespearean tragedies as well then there was a question from Doris Lessing's and Doris Lessing's works Doris Lessing is another important British writer then there was a question from Thomas Knidt Revenger's tragedy a writer that we all study under Elizabethan period and then there was a question from George Chapman another renaissance writer who translated Homer so if you look at the questions that came from British literature they focused on both the periods renaissance renaissance and the period around that and they also focused on the modern works T. S. Eliot we had you know Doris Lessing and Harald Pinter so modern be covered and okay moving ahead to module number two American literature from Ernest Hemingway there where they gave a quotation a man can be destroyed but not defeated this was a quote from which work and the work was Old Man in the Sea so Ernest Hemingway saaya hai but zeroodi nahi hain agar Ernest Hemingway saaya hai toh agli baar bhi bahin saaya hai ka there are so many other American literature writers which are asked in net exam and was subkey list aapko website pae melegi so I would want you to next time be prepared with all those because it's but Ernest Hemingway was at the next bar kisi aur se question hain moving forward to module number three post colonial literature post colonial sip vs nipal se chronology based question aaya hain Margaret actwood se question aaya hain in new give our time go se question aaya on his work essay on literature so as you can see in on a post colonial ko bhi cover kiya hai every time I tell students ke aap ko saare poets dramatist writers as in fictional and non fictional writer her country ke cover karna that means module one is British literature then is American module three is post colonial module four is European module five is Indian ye paacho jago ke aapko saare poets dramatist novelist and non-fiction writers sab kuch cover karna hain kahee se bhi question aasat hain so I always believe in rather than going by all the dramatist together it is better you read all the writers of one particular age or one particular country whether they are poets dramatist fiction non-fiction so that you get to know how all of them were influenced by each other right moving forward to the fourth module European this time as is as of what I have heard till now they didn't ask any question from European literature but last year they were asking about 10 to 12 questions from European so you can't miss out European just because they haven't asked it this time because the trend keeps on changing every year and we move to module number five Indian literature Indian literature se is bar in shift one there was a question from Amitav Khosh ebstriology se then there was a question from Indian aesthetics guys Indian aesthetics is again something which is very very crucial if you go to the website you will see all the important writers that have listed in the Indian aesthetics must be covered by every NTA UGC in that English aspirant okay so this was about the first five modules now moving on to the sixth module criticism now criticism se five to ten questions are here and can you believe in criticism there are just 25 writers that you have to study if you look at British literature British may we go to online course may there are 350 writers that we teach and bhaah se aapko 30 40 questions are there if you look at criticism bhaah pe sif 25 writers hai jaha se pan se 10 questions are there so this is something which is like a bonus for all the students agar apne ye 25 writers ko master kar liya then nothing can stop you from clearing so criticism se no ne plateau se question diya hai view on poetry Aristotle se question aaya hai on his language theories then William Wordsworth se question aaya hai they gave a statement from lyrical ballads and they asked us to tell whether the statement is true or false so that was all the questions that came from criticism moving ahead to module number seven literally theory now literally theory my friends have been the most important module from which the maximum number of questions were asked this time so shift 2 ke under to there were about 40 questions that I know right now which was from literary theory so shift one military theory it tana impactful nahi tha but shift 2 was full of literary theory and that is the reason why in our course you will see that there are more than 100 writers that we have listed that a student should cover in literary theory and for all these writers we provide detailed video lectures now that we have started with the animated videos we have become world's number one institute and the only institute which is providing you video classes and animated video lectures which use 3d graphics to teach English literature so all these novels poetry drama everything is created by using 3d graphics you can actually see the characters you can see they're moving and everything looks like an animated movie so the concepts are so easy for everybody to absorb and then you know it becomes a cakewalk for you so that's a initiative that we all have taken to make UGC net English extremely simple for everyone out there so you know you can go and check out the video lectures there are a few video lectures that we have put in the demo section and there's a separate free course that we are giving so that you can go and check out the kind of videos we are giving and I'm just telling this because we are the only institute across the world you will find which provides video lectures and that to animated video lectures for UGC net English sochke reke itni saari novels stories that you know it would be so easy for you to understand and crack this exam so coming back to literary theory literary theory saap ne is ba dekhah ho ga there were questions from stewart hall there was a question asked that from which university does he belong then there was a question from guide threes p bark there was a question from jack lacan then feminism pe kaafi saare aayate feminism ke works ko chronologically assemble karneke le question tha there was a question on stages of feminism feminist feminine female in ko aapko sequentially arrange karna tha ellen show walter who's a nether very important feminist writer unho ne book likhi hai literature of their own uspe question tha and then there was a question from homie ke baba third space okay so aap dekhene theory se kaafi saare questions aaye but just theory se ne aaye even literary terms and devices aaye most of the students struggle with this thing ki wo mh ebrahans itni ba dee book hai aur usme itne saare terms and devices aaye that people don't know what to study and what to skip but humle go ne apne online course mein we've just listed the important ones and it's ba saare jo terms and devices ke question tha wo sirf un important ones me se aaye zyugma aaya hypostoral elegy metaphor metonymy hero couplets so all the ones that we thought based on the past year paper analysis and based on the analysis of all the set exams that happen nationwide sirf bahi terms and devices hum aapko padne ko bolte jo net point of view se bahot important hai poore book nahi retini hai aapko moving forward to module 9 literally movement se kya question tha angry young man pe question tha realism futurism nihilism ko chronological order mein range karne kaya question aaya tha module 10 11 12 se itne questions nahi aaya tha was english and india cultural studies a language in pedagogy is safe i don't know why but they did not focus much on this otherwise agar aap pehle ke kuch saal dekhenge to devo times when cultural studies se bahot question aaya linguistics das das question aaya is ba ek bhi question nahi tha to that was surprising but research ek question hume pata chala aaya hai that is experimental research and social science so wo question zarood aaya tha now looking at the reading comprehension i felt that reading comprehension jo first poetry thi that came from phillip larkin's mr beanley phillip larkin as a poet we study module one british literature then there was a passage from mythologies by rolin barth rolin barth again we study module seven literary theory so even both the reading comprehensions were very simple because you know the writer you know his writing style so it becomes easier for you to solve it but looking at the overall paper there were few topics which were new which were not even present in the syllabus that we recommend and they were just two three one was bhagvat gita pe question aaya tha we still don't know what was the question like one question came from haruki murakami men without women so haruki murakami as a writer we don't teach right now in the course neither we recommend students because abhita kabhi questions nahi aaya the but this time for the first time they asked a question from haruki murakami and then there was a question from mela alexander too mela alexander doh hum apni course meh pahata hai but we don't go into the details is but kaafi detailed question aaya tha otherwise everything that came like most of the students to whom i spoke to of my online course they said that 90 questions were directly from the syllabus that we recommend to students and jo humara online course ka syllabus hai and mujhe personally agar aap pooch hai toh mai aapko bolungi this time they focused more on criticism theory they focused on minor writers of british literature contemporary writers and chronological questions unka focus is bar english in india language in pedagogy european literature pe kaafi kum tha question pattern mein match the following zada dekha gaya and statement and conclusion based questions kaafi saare the so this was my overall analysis about the paper and i think that the cutoff would be somewhere around 60 for net general candidates ke liye and 66 to 67 for jrf for general candidates again so if you are getting 35 marks in paper one and approximately 60 marks in paper two 60 questions right i meant 35 questions right in paper one and 60 questions right in paper two then i think it's a very good score and you would definitely clear this exam so that was my overall analysis of the paper i hope that the analysis proved beneficial for you and if in case you have any questions any doubts or you're looking for the official question paper and answer key feel free to put that on the whatsapp number that we have displayed on the screen and if you are looking forward to prepare
