Hello Aspirant

Yes, you are eligible for most government B.Sc. Nursing courses as they typically require:

Minimum 45% – 50% in PCB (some states require just 45% for reserved categories including EWS).

**EWS category reservation is 10% in central and many state government institutions.

This gives you an advantage in cut-off marks and seat allocation.

You have better chances under State Quota (85% seats reserved for state domiciles).

You should apply for many government B.Sc. Nursing colleges in India require entrance exams like:

NEET-UG (in many states like Maharashtra, MP, Kerala, etc.)

State-level exams (e.g., CG B.Sc. Nursing, UP B.Sc. Nursing, RUHS, WBJEE JENPAS, etc.)

AIIMS B.Sc. Nursing (if you aim for top institu tions).

*For private Bsc nursing colleges 69% is much better.
