NMMS Hall Ticket 2025-26 Released – Check State-Wise Download Links
What is NMMS?
NMMS stands for National Means-cum-Merit Scholarship. It is a scholarship exam for students in Class 8. The idea is to help students from weaker financial backgrounds so they can continue their studies after class 8. The exam has two parts:
MAT (Mental Ability Test)
SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test)
When you pass the exam, you may get financial help under the scheme.
What is the Admit Card (Hall Ticket) & Why It Matters
The admit card is the entry ticket you must bring to the exam centre.
It has your name, exam centre, date, time, roll number, etc.
Without the admit card, you may not be allowed to enter the exam hall. So it’s very important.
It may also have instructions and rules you must follow on exam day.

Things to Carry on Exam Day
Admit Card (printed or as required)
