Sir/Madam, I want to attend the UGC-NET but I have scored only 45% in my Graduation. Now, I have successfully secured admission for Post Graduation course. I would like to know that is there any difficulty for me to appear in UGC-NET with such percentage of marks in Graduation?

NET stands for National Eligibility Test and the minimum education required for appearing in the NET is a master's degree with at least 55% marks ( or 50% in case of candidates belonging to ST/ST or PWD or PH category) from a recognized university.

So, having completed your graduation degree with 45% marks, you are still eligible to apply for NET if you manage to complete your post graduation degree course with the minimum marks specified above.

No, there will be no difficulty to appear in UGC NET examinations.

The NET exam is conducted for the selection of the assistant professor posts in the university or colleges, to pursue the PhD and for junior research fellowship.

The minimum eligibility to appear for UGC NET exam is that candidates must have passed the post graduation degree with at least 55% marks from the recognized university.

As you have secured 45% marks in graduation there is problem with that. you need to secure minimum qualifying in the post graduation to be eligibile for the UGC NET Exam.
Also your age must be below 30 years for the UGC NET JRF while no age limit for the lectureship.

You need to have 55% marks in your post-graduation. So, if you can manage that, no need to think of your graduation marks.
