Admission to GNM in West Bengal runs entirely through the West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB). You sit one common entrance test, then choose your college in centralised counselling.
Level: Class 10 standard
The questions are set at secondary — Class 10 — level, not Class 12. Many websites state this incorrectly. Prepare from your Madhyamik material.
Format: 1½ hours, all MCQ
A single objective paper of multiple-choice questions, taken in one sitting of ninety minutes.
Language: Bengali & English
The paper is bilingual, except for the English and Logical Reasoning sections. Bengali-medium students are not at a disadvantage.
Subjects
Life science, physical science, mathematics, English and logical reasoning — general secondary knowledge rather than specialist science.
Registration dates, the syllabus and the admit card are published by WBJEEB each cycle. We help our applicants through the online form, and run free doubt-clearing sessions for the entrance paper.
