What BUHSJET Is
BUHSJET โ the BUHS Joint Entrance Test โ is conducted by Bihar University of Health Sciences (BUHS), Patna for admission to nursing, pharmacy and paramedical programmes across its affiliated colleges. If you are aiming for B.Sc Nursing in Bihar, this is the state university entrance route.
CSNC's B.Sc Nursing programme is affiliated to BUHS (affiliation letter published here), so students can join us through BUHSJET counselling โ or through direct admission on merit at the college. For GNM, the state entrance route is DCECE Para Medical instead.
โ ๏ธ Always confirm against the official notification
Exam dates, eligibility rules and counselling schedules change every year. The details below reflect the most recent cycle and are meant to help you plan โ before you apply, verify on the official portal (bceceboard.bihar.gov.in for DCECE, buhsjet.net.in for BUHSJET).

How to Prepare
The paper is built on Class 11 and 12 science. Work through NCERT Physics, Chemistry and Biology rather than thick guide books, practise objective questions under a clock, and โ because there is no negative marking โ leave nothing blank. Since the paper is offered in both English and Hindi, answer in whichever language you read fastest; there is no advantage in choosing English if Hindi is more comfortable.
