Yes, an Indian student who studied in Nepal and completed 12th Science with grade A is eligible for B.Sc Nursing in India, provided she has studied Physics, Chemistry, and Biology as core subjects. Most nursing colleges in India accept students from recognised foreign boards if they meet the subject and marks criteria (usually 50% in PCB). She may also need to appear for entrance exams like NEET or state-level nursing entrance depending on the college requirements. Eligibility is valid in her case.

A GNM is not a doctor. GNM is a diploma-level course that prepares you to be a Nurse or a Midwife. Nurses and Midwives assist senior doctors in treatments and procedures done on patients. Though GNMs work closely with doctors and other healthcare professionals, they are not qualified and trained to diagnose illness, prescribe medicine, or perform any surgical treatment.

If you want to be a doctor, you don't have to complete a BSc in Nursing. If you are already a BSc nursing student, you must follow the same steps to pass the NEET exam as students who have completed their 12th grade before enrolling in MBBS to become a doctor.

If you want to become an ayurvedic doctor, you can pursue BAMS after passing the NEET, one who wishes to be a dentist can pursue BDS and one who want to be an animal doctor, or veterinarian can pursue BVSc.
