Hi, I am in my 12th now and wish to study a degree course in Nursing. So, would I be able to do Diploma in Nursing once I complete my 12th? Or, should I directly go for B.Sc in Nursing? Would it better than 3 years of Diploma in Nursing?

Bsc has more scope than GNM. ... B.sc nursing is an UG course and GNM(General nursing and midwifery ) is an diploma course. Duration of B.sc nursing is 4 year and 3.5 year for the GNM. The requirement for B.sc nursing is 10+2 with PCBE(physics, chemistry, biology and English ) with minimum of 50% passing marks .

Since, you are completing your 12th now, so you should directly do B.Sc. in Nursing instead of doing Diploma in Nursing. Actually, B.Sc. Nursing is a bachelor course and has greater scope than Diploma course. You will have greater opportunities after completing B.Sc. Nursing than Diploma course.
Yes, surely B.Sc. will be better than 3 years of Diploma.
For pursuing B.Sc. Nursing, you should have completed your 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry and Biology with at least 60% marks in aggregate.
