Origin of the MP SET – Madhya Pradesh State Eligibility Test

After the UGC NET exam was instituted, it was felt that the eligibility test at the national level may not be completely able to represent the subjects which are regional in their character.

There was also a significant demand for enabling candidates to appear for the Test in their state’s official language. The State Governments were therefore, given the option of conducting their own State Level Test for eligibility for Lectureship at the state level. Thus the concept of MP SET, i.e., Madhya Pradesh State Eligibility Test for Lectureship Eligibility in the state of Madhya Pradesh was designed.

The MP SET Madhya Pradesh State Eligibility Test is conducted annually, for several popular subjects.

Main differences – MP SET Law and UGC NET Law 2024 & 2025
