    At LPU, you can get admission to the B.Sc. (Hons.) Agriculture program either through entrance exams like LPUNEST, JEE Main, or CUET, or even directly based on your 12th marks! If you've scored 90% or above in your qualifying exam, you don’t even need to give LPUNEST, it gets automatically exempted.
