No, NMMS (National Means–cum–Merit Scholarship) exam is for 8th grade students. That exam is only given by 8th class students. Class 10th students cannot appear. They are not eligible for that because the scholarship starts from Class 9. So u can appear for other exams.
The best NMMS Question Papers are the Previous Year Question Papers (PYQs) from the official state bodies, as they directly guide your study based on the exam's unique structure.
To maximize your score, focus on these papers:
Mental Ability Test (MAT): Practice is crucial here. The best papers focus on puzzles, series completion, and logical reasoning patterns.
