NEET-UG 2026 for Nursing Aspirants

The National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET-UG) is India's single national entrance exam for medical, dental, and allied health programmes including B.Sc Nursing. Following regulatory changes, NEET-UG scores are increasingly required for B.Sc Nursing admissions across India in both government and private institutions.

For nursing aspirants, Biology is the most critical subject — it carries 360 out of 720 marks (50% of the paper). A strong NEET score opens the door to top nursing colleges including AIIMS, PGIMER, JIPMER and state government colleges. ExameNurse provides nursing-focused NEET practice aligned to the NCERT syllabus.
