Objective: to describe the first unified entrance exam in relation to biomedical careers; analyze the consequences of the first unified entrance exam for nursing professional identity. Method: historical-social, descriptive study, with a qualitative approach, which used as sources 22 publications about the 1971 entrance exam from Jornal dos Sports. Data were collected from July to September/2021 and analyzed using the professional identity framework. Results: The unified entrance exam allowed 47 men to enter, for the first time, and 33 women. Mostly unclassified for medicine, these candidates' choice to enroll in the secondary option was a strategy to link them to a federal institution, which delayed the filling of unfilled vacancies and led to 11 calls for reclassification. Conclusion: the unified entrance exam made it difficult for candidates convinced of their professional choice to access the nursing course. Admitting candidates whose first choice was medicine led to dropouts.
