Hello,

NEST (National Entrance Screening Test) is exam for 5 year integrated MSc program. NEST is a computer based test (online). The exam will be held in two sessions and duration of each will be 3 hours and 30 minutes. The question paper will have MCQ type and will be divided into 5 sections like General section, Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics. The first section i.e general section is mandatory for all, while the candidates can attempt at least three of the sections from remaining four (Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics).

Number of questions in General see are 10 and 15 questions each in remaining four sections.

In subject sections there are negative marks for incorrect answers, some questions may have multiple right answers for which marks will be given only when you select all the correct answers.

NEST exam is for students seeking admissions in NISER Bhuvaneshwar and UM-DA CEBS Mumbai.

The eligibility to appear for NEST is the candidate must obtain minimum of 60% aggregate in class XII or equivalent examination from any recognized Board in India.
