Hi Candidate,

NEST is the entrance examination for getting a seat into the top Research Oriented college of the country National Institute of Science Education and Research (NISER) and CEBS (Center for Excellence in Basic Sciences), which is held once a year.

The cut-off for NISER and CEBS not only includes the total Cut-off but also the Subject- Wise cut-off for individual Subjects. Hence, inorder to get a rank you have to clear individual Subject-Wise cutoff as well as the total Cut-off.

Hope that this answer is helpful. Have a Good Day!!
