The Jharkhand Post Basic B.Sc Nursing 2027 syllabus is the “A” grade nursing (GNM) course you studied for your diploma. JCECEB sets a 100-mark objective test on it for registered GNM nurses. The notice names only the GNM course, so revise all three years of your GNM subjects rather than a separate list.
