I am a maths student and never read biology in last 4 years. Is it compoulsory to clear the sectional cuttoff of biology in the NEST exam?

Sharon Rose Student Expert 23rd Jul, 2021

Hello,

To qualify for admission a candidate must score sectional cut off marks and overall cut off marks as well. For admission to NISER Section-wise Minimum Admissible Score is calculated for all 4 sections separately so it is mandatory to attempt questions from all the sections. For admission in to CEBS Section-wise Minimum Admissible Score for any 3 subjects so you can skip attempting question from Biology section.

can anyone pls say me the weightage of all chapters (11th & 12th) in NEST 2021 of Bio,Phy,Chem,Math. please help.

Pankhuri Kumari 8th Apr, 2021
Hii!
NEST entrance exam doesn't have a particular pattern of questions where one can look out for chapter wise weightage. This is because, the questions in the exam are framed in a way that they are indirect and you need to apply your knowledge and concept of multiple chapters at a time and solve the question. So, each and every chapter from each subject and it's concept is important.
The link to the syllabus is given below -
