Hello Abdul !

ANN i.e. Auxiliary Nursing Midwifery is a  diploma course of  18 months and GNM i.e General Nursing and Midwifery is  3 years & 6 month duration program.

Both of these course are good , you can opt any of them based on your interest like , By doing ANM you will do the treatment of children, women & old age people , and by doing GNM you will deal with the education of nurses in general health care, nursing, and midwifery.

Also , there are very good future scopes after doing these courses like , you can go for higher studies , You can also work at education Institutions, nursing tutor, ICU nurse & Infection control nurse.

You have to qualify the basic eligibility criteria for getting admission for these courses ,  Eligibility criteria for ANM is :

  1. 10+2 (from Arts or Science stream)
  2. Your score should be at least 40-50% marks in the qualifying examination.
  3. Minimum age requirement is 17 years
  4. Only female students can apply for this course.

Eligibility criteria for GNM is:

  1. 10+2 passed with Physics, Chemistry and Biology subjects.
  2. The age limit is minimum 17 years and maximum 30 years
  3. This course is for both male and female students.


Hope it helps !
