To get admission in the AFMC BSc nursing programme, candidates must apply for the NEET UG exam. It is mandatory to appear for the NEET UG exam to be eligible for admission to the MNS course. The DGMS will conduct a separate aptitude test along with the interview and medical fitness test. But only those candidates who appear for the NEET UG exam will be able to apply for admission.

A NEET score of 250 marks does not define or guarantee that admission to the MNS college will not be granted. It depends on multiple factors, such as the candidate's category. The seat availability in the college till the last round of counselling. Aspirants are advised to apply for MNS admission rather than thinking about the low NEET score. Although an ideal score to aim for admission should be 500+ marks.

The Indian Army BSc Nursing exam is a very competitive entrance test in the nursing domain. Candidates must ideally aim for 500+ marks in the NEET exam to be eligible for admission to the six available campuses. As there are only 220 seats and thousands of candidates compete for admission, the race to secure seats faces a cut-throat competition.

There is no official ranking of the Indian Army BSc Nursing campuses. It depends on the preference of the candidate and the seat available at the time of admission. Only female candidates can seek admission to the MNS programme. Therefore, it is important to clear the ToGIGE, PAT, Interview, and Medical fitness test.
