  • Hi
    The syllabus and format of the paper is different for every course as LPUNEST is purely course specific. The sample papers, duration, format of the paper and marks distribution of LPUNEST for every course is provided in detail at the website. One can refer to the syllabus and sample papers available at this link: nest.lpu.in to prepare for LPUNEST.
    LPUNEST is neither too simple nor too challenging. If you work hard and have a thorough understanding of the concepts covered in the LPUNEST, you will be able to crack the exam with a good score. LPUNEST is a fully MCQ test with no negative marking.
    good luck
