Bihar Board begins registration for free coaching for JEE and NEET 2027

The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) has commenced the registration process for a free coaching programme for students preparing for the Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) and National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET) 2027. According to an NDTV report, interested students can apply online through the board's official website coaching.biharboardonline.com.

The last date for submitting application forms for this coaching programme has been fixed as 19 November 2026. The board has set a tentative date of 6 December 2026 for the selection examination. Under this scheme, selected students will be provided free residential coaching in Patna, while non-residential coaching facilities will be available at centres located across the nine divisions of Bihar.

Regarding eligibility for application, it has been stated that students appearing for the Class 10 examination in 2027 through the Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB), Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE), or any other recognised board can apply. However, a key condition is that applicants must be willing to take admission in Class 11 in a school affiliated with the Bihar Board.

Selected candidates will receive classroom coaching from experienced teachers to prepare for the JEE and NEET examinations. Students selected for the residential programme in Patna will also receive free hostel accommodation and meals. Additionally, other facilities such as study materials, doubt-clearing sessions, and regular mock tests to assist in entrance exam preparation will be provided.

The primary objective of this programme is to help students who cannot afford the cost of private coaching, ensuring they have the opportunity to prepare adequately for admission into engineering and medical colleges.

On the other hand, the National Testing Agency (NTA) has announced the schedule for Session 1 of JEE Main 2027. According to the official notification, this examination will be held on 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, and 28 January 2027. The exam will be conducted in two shifts at centres across the country. The first shift will run from 9 am to 12 pm and the second shift from 3 pm to 6 pm, with three hours allotted for Paper 1.

The JEE Main 2027 examination will be conducted in a total of 13 languages, including English, Hindi, Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Odia, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu, and Urdu.

No announcement has been made by the NTA yet regarding the date for the NEET UG 2027 examination. Candidates have been advised to regularly check the official website neet.nta.nic.in for the examination schedule and other updates.
