Last Updated: June 2026
The West Bengal Joint Entrance Examinations Board (WBJEEB) is expected to release the provisional answer key for the Joint Entrance Test for Nursing, Paramedical and Allied Sciences Undergraduate Courses (JENPAS UG) 2026 on its official website. The answer key will allow applicants to review the officially accepted responses and estimate their likely scores before the publication of results.
JENPAS UG is conducted for admission to undergraduate nursing, paramedical and allied health science programmes offered by participating institutions across West Bengal. After the examination, WBJEEB typically publishes the provisional answer key and OMR response sheets, enabling candidates to review their recorded responses and raise objections, where applicable.
As of June 2026, WBJEEB has not issued an official notification announcing the answer key release date. Any timeline mentioned below is based on previous examination cycles and media reports and should be treated as tentative until confirmed by the board.

Important Note
Applicants should regularly check WBJEEB notifications for confirmed schedules. Dates mentioned in news reports or educational portals may differ from the final schedule announced by the board.
Why the Answer Key Is Important
The provisional answer key allows examinees to compare their responses with the answers published by WBJEEB and estimate their probable scores. It also provides an opportunity to identify potential discrepancies before the final evaluation process is completed.
For nursing and allied health science aspirants, the answer key serves as an intermediate step between the examination and the declaration of results. The subsequent objection process allows concerns to be reviewed before the final answer key is published.
