The exam pattern for NEST is as follows -

  • All the questions in NEST 2020 are multiple-choice questions where the candidates have to choose one correct option out of the four options given.

  • In section II of the NEST question paper, the candidates are given the questions which carry one or more correct answers. Candidates have to mark all the correct answers.

  • In section 1 of the NEST question paper 2020, there will be no negative marking. However, in other sections, there will be negative marking about which the candidates will be notified.

  • Section to section V contains questions from Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Mathematics. Candidates can attempt as many NEST questions as they can but during the calculation of the NEST result , the marks of the best three subjects are taken into consideration.
