NMIMS CET previous year question papers from the 27 June 2021 test (Shift 2) are free to download here: one Engineering paper (with Mathematics) and one Pharmacy paper (with Biology), each with 120 questions and the correct option marked in green. The 2021 sections match today’s 120-question, 120-minute test with no negative marking, so both papers are good practice for NMIMS CET 2027, expected between February and May 2027.

How to Use NMIMS CET Previous Year Papers?
- Time each section on its own. NMIMS CET gives every section its own clock, so practise Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics or Biology at 30 minutes each, Logical Intelligence at 20 and Verbal Reasoning at 10. Time left in one section does not carry over.
- Answer every question. There is no negative marking, so never leave a question blank before a section’s timer runs out.
- Cover the green answers. The correct option is marked inside each 2021 paper. Hide it while you solve and check only at the end of each section.
- Use your retakes well. NMIMS counts your best score from up to three attempts. Solve both 2021 papers before your first slot, then redo your weak sections before a retake.
