Most nursing entrance exams require candidates to be at least 17 years old by a certain date (e.g., the exam year). This ensures that candidates are physically and mentally mature enough to handle the demands of nursing education and practice.
Most nursing entrance exams require candidates to have completed high school with a focus on science subjects such as Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, as these form the foundation of nursing studies.
Most nursing entrance exams do not require candidates to have prior work experience in healthcare. The primary focus is on academic qualifications and age eligibility. Work experience may be required for specialized nursing programs but not for general nursing entrance exams.
Many nursing entrance exams set a minimum mark requirement (often around 60%) in science subjects like Biology and Chemistry to ensure that candidates have the necessary academic background to succeed in nursing studies.
Most nursing entrance exams require candidates to be either citizens or permanent residents of the country where the exam is being held. This ensures that candidates are eligible for admission to institutions within the country.
