Hello,

As per the official notification released now NEET scores too are accepted for admission in BSc Nursing course such as in case of JIPMER/BHU/GGSIPU to name a few, these institutions from this year onwards will conduct admission through NEET scores, however you must remember that NEET isn't compulsory for BSc Nursing say unlike in case of undergraduate medical science courses such as MBBS/BDS/Ayush etc, the reason being there are still other exams such as Indian Army BSc Nursing, AIIMS BSc nursing etc, the eligibility criteria to appear in NEET is attained 17 years as on 31st December of the appearing year, passed 10+2 or its equivalent from a recognized board with Physics, Chemistry, Biology/Biotechnology and English as core subjects.PCB Aggregate inclusive of theory and practical needs to be achieved against one's respective category that is UR-50%,SC/ST/OBC-40%
