This question was previously asked in
UGC NET 2019 Paper 1 Question Paper (5-Dec-2019) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is

Political orientation

To determine which factor is a deterrent for students to do well in higher education, let's analyze each option:

  1. Political orientation: This refers to an individual's beliefs and attitudes regarding politics. While political awareness can be enriching, in the context of higher education, strong political orientation might distract students from their academic goals and lead to biased perspectives. Therefore, it could act as a deterrent in certain cases where it overshadows academic progress.
  2. Academic strategies: These are methods or plans designed to help students achieve academic success. Effective academic strategies contribute positively to a student’s performance and are unlikely to be deterrents.
  3. Comprehension ability: This is the ability to understand and interpret information effectively. Higher comprehension ability aids students in their studies and is generally beneficial, not a deterrent.
  4. Academic discourse: Refers to the structured discussion of academic content. Engaging in academic discourse improves understanding and knowledge sharing and is not a deterrent.

Given the analysis, the factor that could deter students from performing well in higher education is political orientation.
