CSIR NET Physical Sciences — Know the Important Topics!

Physical Sciences is a branch of natural science which studies non-living systems, in comparison to life science.

Science is very necessary to live life because we live in a world where science continually advances and leaves its effect on our everyday lives.

As we all know it's not an easy task to establish a career in this field. And if you plan to appear for CSIR NET Physical Sciences then you must go through a well-planned preparation strategy and work smartly.

The syllabus of Physical Sciences for CSIR UGC NET exam is vast as it is a broader term.

So, to make easy your preparation for the exam, here I have come up with the important topics of Physical Sciences which are selected by the experts on the basis of the marking weightage or repetition in previous years question papers.
