program on the knowledge of antenatal examination among third-year nursing students. This study is pre-experimental
research conducted among third-year nursing students at a selected college in Greater Noida, U.P. A total of thirty students
were selected using a simple random sampling technique for a self-structured knowledge questionnaire. The results
