Hi Mansi,

AIIMS does not release BSc Nursing question papers probably due to it being an online examination. However, there are a number of books and sample papers available in the market which can guide you on the exam pattern, type of questions asked and get a knack on the subject-matter.

Before listing the guides, here is a quick gist of the exam pattern of AIIMS BSc Nursing . The exam comprises four sections with 30 questions each asked from Physics, Chemistry and Biology, and 10 questions asked from General Knowledge. The questions will be asked from PCB of Class 12 or equivalent.

Here are some popular books which are frequently used for the preparation of BSc Nursing:

• Guide for Nursing Competitive Exam by Preeti Agarwal, RS Sharma and Vinod Gupta
• BSc Nursing Entrance Test by Arihant
• Nursing Entrance Test by R Gupta, among others.

And since the data base for the total number of participants is not out, it is very difficult to tell you how many people you'll be competing with. But do not be scared of the high volume of applicants, a high participation will be there because a lot many like you want to study at AIIMS but do not let that affect your focus. Just keep working hard and you'll soar high.

I hope this is helpful and I wish you all the very best.

All the best for the exam!
