What is JENPAS UG 2025? Quick Overview

• JENPAS UG is the entrance exam conducted by WBJEEB for admission into undergraduate nursing, paramedical and allied sciences courses in West Bengal.
• For 2025, the exam has two papers: Paper I (for most courses) and Paper II (for BHA or certain specialisations).
• Medium: English and Bengali. Mode: Pen-&-paper (OMR based) for most past years.
• Solving the question paper is one of the most effective ways to understand the level of the exam, the question types, and to hone time-management.

Exam Pattern & Marking Scheme (for 2025)

Here is what the pattern looks like for JENPAS UG 2025 (based on official sources):

Paper I (for most courses)

Subject	Category I (1 mark each; –¼ for wrong)	Category II (2 marks each; usually no negative)	Total questions	Marks

Mathematics	10	5	15	20
General Knowledge	10	5	15	20
Basic English	20	–	20	20
Logical Reasoning	20	–	20	20
Total	85	15	100	115

Key features

• Negative marking of ¼ mark for each wrong answer in Category I questions.
• Usually, Category II questions carry 2 marks each, sometimes with no negative marking (check official notification).
• It’s important to know which paper you are appearing for (Paper I or Paper II) based on your desired course.

Detailed Analysis of the 2025 Paper

Analysing the 2025 question paper (or candidate responses) gives vital insights into how you should prepare. According to recent updates:

• The exam date was October 18, 2025 (for both papers) in two shifts: Paper I from 11 AM-12:30 PM, Paper II from 2 PM-3:30 PM.
• The overall difficulty level: moderate.

Paper I – section-wise insights

• Physics: Moderate to difficult. Several application-based or conceptual questions.
• Chemistry: Easy to moderate. Many direct questions from NCERT concepts.
• Biology: Easy to moderate; higher weightage to straightforward factual questions.
• Logical Reasoning: Very easy compared to other sections.
• Basic English: Easy; standard questions on grammar, vocabulary, comprehension.
  From these you can infer: Physics needs more time-investment; other sections more manageable if you’re well-prepared.

Paper II – section-wise (based on pattern & past trends)

• Physical Science & Mathematics: These tend to have trickier questions compared to Paper I science subjects. Because Physical Science often combines Physics + Chemistry.
• General Knowledge: Straightforward and direct.
• English & Logical Reasoning: Similar to Paper I – more manageable.

What does this mean for you?

• If you’re strong in Biology & Chemistry → Paper I will play to your strengths.
• If you pick Paper II (or both), make sure your Physical Science and Mathematics foundation is rock solid.
• Time-management is key: Paper I has heavier Science mix (Physics/Chemistry/Biology) which may eat more time.
• Use the question paper to simulate exam conditions: 100 questions, 90 minutes, negative marking – all must be replicated in mock practice.

Why Solving the Question Paper Makes a Big Difference

You might ask: “Why spend time on the exact 2025 question paper rather than just focusing on the syllabus?” Here are several compelling reasons:

1. Exam Pattern Familiarity
   The question paper reveals how questions are distributed across subjects, how many Category I vs Category II, how marks are allocated. For JENPAS UG 2025, this is clearly seen from the pattern table above. Using the paper helps you understand what to expect.
2. Time Management & Speed
   When you practice under real-time constraints (e.g., 90 minutes for 100 questions) using the actual paper, you train your brain to allocate time effectively, avoid spending too long on a question, and decide quickly when to move on.
3. Identify Weaknesses & Topic Weightage
   The question paper often shows which topics are recurring, which are asked heavily, and where you tend to lose marks. For example, if in Physics most questions are conceptual, and you’re weak there — you’ll see it.
4. Boosts Confidence & Reduces Exam Anxiety
   Having successfully solved the question paper in full mimics the actual exam environment. On exam day you’ll feel more comfortable, because you’ve been in that scenario already.
5. Improves Accuracy (especially with negative marking)
   With negative marking (-¼ for wrong answers), careless mistakes can be costly. Practising the exact format helps you decide when to attempt and when to skip.

Given all the benefits, the question paper becomes a must-have tool for high scoring aspirants.

How to Use the Question Paper Effectively – Step-by-Step

Having the 2025 paper is only part of the game. How you use it makes the difference. Here’s a comprehensive strategy:

Step 1: Download & Print

Get the PDF from official link (see above). If you can, print it or use a separate sheet to simulate OMR-style marking.

Step 2: First Pass – Timed Simulation

• Sit for 90 minutes (or the actual time) and attempt full paper under exam-like conditions (quiet room, no interruptions).
• Try to maintain roughly the same environment as the actual exam (pen-&-paper mode).
• Do not refer to solutions during this simulation.

Step 3: Self-Evaluation

After completing:

• Mark answers (you’ll need the answer key – many sites publish it)
• Count correct, incorrect, and unanswered.
• Use the formula: Score = (Correct × 1) − (Incorrect × 0.25) for Category I (if applicable). Note: Category II may have 2 marks each.
• Analyse section-wise: Which subject consumed most time? Which had most mistakes?

Step 4: Detailed Review

• For every incorrect / guessed / skipped question: mark the topic, reason for mistake (lack of concept, careless error, time pressure).
• For solved questions: Did you spend too long? Was it easy?
• Identify top-5 topics from which you lost the most marks. Top-5 topics you answered best.

Step 5: Targeted Practice

• Focus on weak topics: Use your syllabus or recommended textbooks to revise those.
• Do topic-wise drills, then return to full-paper simulation again.
• Aim to reduce errors and improve speed.

Step 6: Re-attempt the Paper

After revision (say after 1-2 weeks):

• Re-take the paper under timed conditions again.
• Compare your improvement: time taken, score, number of wrongs, number of skipped.
• This loop helps you gradually adapt to the exam pattern.

Step 7: Final Week Strategy

• Use the question paper as a revision tool: Solve it a day or two before exam under timed conditions to build confidence.
• Use it also for revision of important topics you found in the paper (especially ones that appeared in 2025).

Preparation Strategy Based on the 2025 Question Paper

Here’s how you can craft your remaining preparation schedule based on insights from the 2025 paper:

1. Subject-Wise Focus

• Physics: As the analysis said, this was moderately to highly difficult in 2025. So allocate extra revision time here—especially on application-based & conceptual questions.
• Chemistry: Slightly easier; focus on NCERT concepts and quick revision.
• Biology: Important for Paper I; ensure you cover major themes (as Biology tends to have high weightage and moderate difficulty).
• English & Logical Reasoning: These sections are scoring and easily manageable. Use these to boost your overall marks by ensuring high accuracy.
• Mathematics / Physical Science / GK (for Paper II): If you choose Paper II, give extra time to Mathematics and Physical Science as these tend to be time-intensive.

2. Time Allocation in Daily Preparation

• 60 % of time: Science subjects (Physics, Chemistry, Biology) — because they carry heavy weight.
• 20 % of time: English & Logical Reasoning — for high accuracy.
• 20 % of time: For Paper II aspirants: Maths + GK + Physical Science.
  Adjust depending on your strength/weakness areas.

3. Mock Tests & Full-Paper Sessions

• Use the 2025 question paper (and previous years) for at least 2 full-paper simulations per week in the last month.
• In earlier months, start with topic-wise tests and gradually integrate full-papers.

4. Review & Feedback Loop

• Maintain a “mistake log” — each time you get a question wrong in the question paper or mock test, note why.
• Revisit those topics every weekend.
• After each full simulation, compute your “time per question” and “wrong per section” stats. Use them to adjust strategy.

5. Exam Day Strategy

• First 10 minutes: Quickly scan the paper, identify your strong sections (likely Biology/English) and solve them early.
• Then move to moderate sections. Leave the most difficult (for you) for last.
• Keep an eye on time: 90 minutes for 100 questions means you must average ~0.9 minutes (~54 seconds) per question. Try to beat that in your practice.
• Use negative marking wisely – if unsure, skip rather than guess blindly.
