For many undergraduate courses such as BBA, BCA, BA, B.Com and other general programs, students with strong academic records in 10+2 are often granted direct admission based on merit. Since you have secured a high percentage in your board exams, you are eligible to apply without LPUNEST for these programs.

    However, for professional and technical programs like B.Tech, MBA, M.Tech, and certain honours courses, LPUNEST is usually considered mandatory as it serves both as an

    It depends on the programme you choose. If you are planning to pursue a B.Tech programme, you will need to take the LPU NEST and meet certain percentage criteria. However, for any other programme, LPU NEST is not mandatory. The candidates will get a significant scholarship amount if they qualify LPU NEST. Even after completing the admission procedure, you can still apply for LPU NEST to enhance your scholarship. This presents a great opportunity to receive applicable scholarships, which will be deducted from the fee for each semester.

Dear, Yes, if you miss the first phase of LPU NEST, you can still apply for the next phase. Lovely Professional University conducts LPU NEST in multiple phases each year to give students several chances to appear for the exam and qualify for admission or scholarships. You simply need to check the updated schedule on the official LPU website and complete the registration process for the upcoming phase. However, applying in the earlier phases is recommended, as it often provides better chances for higher scholarships and early admission to preferred programs.

Dear, To manage time effectively during the LPU NEST exam, start by carefully reading all the instructions and understanding the question pattern before you begin. Divide your total exam time based on the number of questions—allocate a few minutes to each and avoid spending too long on any single question.

Begin with the sections or questions you find the easiest to build confidence and secure quick marks, then move on to more challenging ones. Keep track of time using the on-screen timer and make sure to leave a few minutes at the end to review your answers. Practice mock tests regularly before the exam to improve your speed and accu
