Hello there,

No, 10th appeared students cannot take part in the NMMS (National Means Cum-Merit Scholarship) exam . The exam is only for Class 8 students studying in government or government-aided schools.

To be eligible, students must:

1. Be in Class 8 at the time of application.
2. Have secured at least 55% marks (50% for reserved categories) in Class 7.
3. Have a family income of less than Rs. 3,50,000 per year.

Since you are in Class 10 , you are not eligible for NMMS. You can explore other scholarships for Class 10 students , such as NTSE, KVPY, or state-level merit scholarships .
