Hi Akshay,

NEST is an entrance to get you admission to the 5-year Integrated MSc Program at National Institute of Science Education and Research (NISER) Bhubaneswar and University of Mumbai - Department of Atomic Energy , Centre for Excellence in Basic Sciences (UM-DAE CEBS) Mumbai the most premier science institutes in the country. The entrance would be on par with JEE Advanced level. Since the programme aims to combine Research with education, admission is purely based on Merit. You need to be thorough with you class 11 and 12 syllabus.

Nest previous year question papers (along with answers) ranging from year 2007 to 2017 are available at https://www.nestexam.in/


You need to practise them as well to get an idea of the exam pattern and difficulty level.

Hello Akshay solanki
 

  Your reason for asking this question may be one or more of these :

Not many are talking about NEST.

There are not many aspirants for NEST.

M.Sc.not being thetrend,likeB.Tech.

Exam being held on a Saturday :P.

Blah blah


But believe me,NEST is definitely an exam worth appearing for science students.I had a JEE Advanced rank, which could not have given me anythingcloseto what my NEST rank had for me.
