The BPSC AEDO recruitment drive is significant due to the high number of applicants competing for a limited number of posts. The Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) has released the admit card for the Assistant Education Development Officer (AEDO) exam on April 3, 2026. Candidates can download their admit cards from the official BPSC website.
For the AEDO position, there are a total of 935 vacancies available. This year, approximately 9.8 lakh candidates have applied for the exam, highlighting the competitive nature of the selection process. The written exam is scheduled to take place on April 14, 15, 17, 18, 20, and 21, 2026.
The examination will be conducted in offline mode, utilizing an OMR-based format. Candidates are required to bring a printed copy of their admit card along with a valid photo ID proof to the exam centre. It is crucial for candidates to check their individual admit cards for specific reporting times and shift details.
The exam will be conducted in two shifts: the morning session from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM and the afternoon session from 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM. Each candidate will face a negative marking scheme, with 1/3 of a mark deducted for each incorrect answer.
With a salary of ₹29,200 for the AEDO post, the stakes are high for candidates. The qualifying paper requires a minimum percentage of 30, while each of the two main papers—General Studies and General Aptitude—will carry 100 marks each, with a duration of two hours per paper.
As the exam dates approach, candidates are advised to prepare thoroughly and ensure they have all necessary documents ready for the exam day. The BPSC has emphasized the importance of adhering to the guidelines provided in the admit card.
