Hello,

For Class 11 admission in JNV (Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya) :

  • No JNVST or LEST entrance exam is conducted for Class 11.

  • Admission is done only on the basis of merit.

Selection criteria:

  • Marks obtained in Class 10 (CBSE or State Board) .

  • Availability of vacant seats in the stream (Science / Commerce / Arts).

  • Subject-wise eligibility as per the chosen stream.

So, students are selected through a merit list , not through any entrance exam.

Admissions depend on seat availability and are not guaranteed every year.

Hope it helps !
