Hi Rushikesh
We cannot tell exactly how many many students would be appearing for NEST 2020. But around 80 thousand students appeared in 2019 and about 67 thousand in 2017.
So going by the previous trends, we can assume that around 80 to 85 thousand students would be appearing for the exam in 2020.
There are 202 seats in NISER Bhubaneshwar and 47 seats in UMDAE CBS and a score of around 110-120 would help you grab a place. All the best.
Hello Rushikesh,
The NEST exam 2020 marking scheme is divided for different sections. There will be no negative marking for general ability section. However, the negative marking system will be applicable for other 3 sections. The paper will be total of 230 marks out of which the student can score maximum of 180 marks.
Good luck.
