The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) has invited online applications for its free coaching programme for JEE (Main) and NEET aspirants for the 2026–28 academic batch. The initiative is aimed at providing quality coaching support to talented students, especially from economically weaker sections, to help them prepare for national-level engineering and medical entrance examinations.
Two Coaching Modes Offered
To ensure greater accessibility, BSEB has introduced two separate coaching schemes:
-
Residential Coaching Scheme:
Under this scheme, selected students will be provided free hostel accommodation, meals, classroom coaching, and study materials at designated centres. This option is meant for students who require a fully structured learning environment.
-
Non-Residential Coaching Scheme:
Students opting for this scheme will receive free classroom coaching and academic support while staying at their own residences. Hostel facilities will not be included, but study materials and mentoring will be provided.
Eligibility Criteria
Students who have passed or are appearing in Class 10 or Class 12 from a recognised board are eligible to apply. Preference will be given to students studying in government schools and those belonging to economically disadvantaged backgrounds, as per BSEB norms.
Selection Process
Selection will be based on a screening/entrance examination conducted by BSEB. A merit list will be prepared on the basis of performance in the test, and shortlisted candidates will be allotted seats according to availability and preference of coaching mode.
Facilities and Academic Support
The free coaching programme will offer:
-
Experienced faculty for Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Biology
-
Regular mock tests and performance evaluations
-
Doubt-clearing sessions and mentoring
-
Competitive exam-oriented study material
Application Process
Eligible students can apply online through the official BSEB website. The board will soon release detailed notifications regarding important dates, examination pattern, counselling process, and final selection.
Strengthening Competitive Exam Preparation
The initiative reflects BSEB’s continued efforts to promote equal educational opportunities and reduce dependence on expensive private coaching institutes. By offering free, structured preparation for JEE and NEET, the board aims to empower deserving students from Bihar to compete at the national level.
