The Bihar Combined Entrance Competitive Examination (BCECE) is the state-level entrance examination conducted annually by the Bihar Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board (BCECEB) for admission into various undergraduate and postgraduate professional courses offered by institutions and universities in Bihar. The exam is held for admissions in courses such as engineering, pharmacy, agriculture, medical and paramedical programs across multiple colleges and institutions in the state.
The BCECE consists of two papers - Paper 1 is for undergraduate engineering admissions and Paper 2 is for Agriculture, Pharmacy and Health Science. The exam tests students in subjects of physics, chemistry, mathematics, and biology. Candidates are required to meet defined eligibility criteria set by BCECEB to appear for the BCECE exam. The 2024 BCECE exam will likely be held in April/May and the results are expected by June. After the declaration of BCECE results, qualified candidates need to participate in the counselling process, involving registration, choice filling, and seat allotment for admission into their preferred institute and program in Bihar.
