Admission to MSc (Hons.) Microbiology program at LPU is based on entrance exams like LPUNEST, CUET or GATE. Most of the candidates prefer appearing in LPUNEST as it provides them with scholarship benefits.
LPUNEST serves as the primary criterion for admission at LPU and will assess your aptitude depending on the program you applied for. Generally, the syllabus is from the previous degree/class that you have cleared. So for the MSc (Hons) Microbiology program, you should cover the topics from your bachelor’s degree. I have provided the general biology syllabus available on the LPU website for your reference.
