Master's degree in any discipline from a recognized university.

Percentage of marks in master's should not be less than 55%.

But with just high school qualification, you can not apply for NET/SET exam.

NET/SET refers to National Eligibility Test/State Eligibility test and same is held by concerned body for recruitment of lecturer is universities managed by Central government or concerned state government.

As far as you are concerned about your eligibility for appearing in NET/SET being a higher secondary school degree holder then I would like to let you know that you are not eligible as for the same you are required to have completed your Master's degree with 55% marks ( or 50% marks in case of SC/ST/PH category candidates ) from a recognized university.

The qualification for this exam is master's degree and you are senior secondary passed only. To apply for the exam, post graduation is necessary. Age is not a constraint for exam.
