STUDY GUIDE
How to prepare for GNM 3rd year
GNM 3rd year covers midwifery and community health, then moves into internship. It is also the time to start preparing for staff nurse recruitments.
Subjects to prioritise
Midwifery and Gynaecological Nursing is the largest paper: normal pregnancy, labour, newborn care and complications. Community Health Nursing II covers national health programmes and the health system, which recruitment exams ask every year.
Study routine
- Learn the stages of labour and their nursing care as a flowchart
- Keep a table of national health programmes
- Use internship postings to connect theory to practice
- Start previous-year recruitment papers in the final months
After GNM
With registration you can apply for state staff nurse posts, and for AIIMS NORCET after two years of experience. Post Basic B.Sc Nursing turns your diploma into a degree.
