Know your possible colleges in Bihar
Enter your AIAPGET All India Rank, round and seat categories to see the seats that went to a similar rank. This is based on last year’s data: the seat allotment results of the 2025 counselling by the Bihar Combined Entrance Competitive Examination Board (BCECEB), for Government Ayurvedic College, Patna.
How to read the results
The closing rank is the AIAPGET All India Rank of the last candidate allotted that seat in the chosen round of the 2025 Bihar counselling. Your rank is compared with it.
- High
- Your rank is at least 20% better than the closing rank.
- Good
- Your rank is within the closing rank, with a smaller margin.
- Borderline
- Your rank is past the closing rank by up to 10% (or 20 ranks).
- Low
- Your rank is past the closing rank by up to 30% (or 60 ranks).
Seats further out than that are not listed.
- Open seat
- Half of the state’s seats, printed as OPEN: for every eligible candidate, wherever they passed BAMS.
- Institutional seat
- The other half, printed as INSTITUTIONAL: kept for candidates who passed BAMS from a government Ayurvedic college of Bihar.
One college takes part: Government Ayurvedic College, Patna. When the 2025 counselling began it had 64 state seats in 15 specialities, 32 open and 32 institutional, and 21 of the 64 were kept for women. Ten more seats were added before Round 3. A seat kept for women is marked “for women” in the results.
- The categories are named exactly as the allotment lists print them. UR is the unreserved category. Most candidates keep UR ticked; a candidate with no reserved category ticks UR only.
- EWS, SC, EBC and BC seats go only to candidates of that category, so tick your own as well: an EBC candidate ticks UR and EBC. EBC is the Extremely Backward Class and BC the Backward Class. They need a caste certificate from the State of Bihar.
- RCG is Reserved Category Girls: seats for women of the SC, ST, EBC and BC categories. Tick it together with “I am a woman candidate”.
- A third of the seats are kept for women. Tick “I am a woman candidate” to count them; women compete for every other seat as well.
- Half the seats are kept for institutional preference: candidates who passed BAMS from a government Ayurvedic college of Bihar. Tick that box only if that is you. The other half are open to every eligible candidate.
- The prospectus asks every candidate to be a permanent resident of Bihar, so there is nothing to tick for it.
- There is no ST box. The one seat for the Scheduled Tribes in 2025 was never allotted as such.
If more than one seat open to you exists for the same speciality and seat type, the one that closed later is shown.
- Round 1
- Every seat is on offer in Round 1, so its closing ranks are the strictest.
- Round 2
- Only the seats allotted in Round 2: those given up after Round 1, and those freed by candidates who moved up to a better seat. There were very few.
- Round 3
- Only the seats allotted in Round 3: the ten seats added to the college before this round, the seats then vacant, and those freed by candidates who moved up. Reserved seats nobody claimed were converted to UR.
- Stray vacancy round
- Only the seats still vacant after Round 3, for candidates who hold no seat.
A candidate allotted a seat in Round 1 could ask to move up in Round 2, and kept the seat if nothing better came. Because seats were added before Round 3, candidates already admitted could take part in it too. The Round 2 and Round 3 lists also name the candidates who kept the seat they had, marked “Retained”: 28 in Round 2 and 24 in Round 3. Those seats were not on offer to anyone else, so they are not counted in the round.
- It is one year of results, not a forecast. Seats, applicants and their preferences change every year.
- Bihar’s counselling is small: one college and 64 seats, 74 from Round 3. Most kinds of seat had a single place on offer, so a closing rank is often one candidate’s rank. Treat it as a guide.
- Each round shows only the seats allotted in it. Round 2 allotted just 4, so it has little to show; Round 1 and Round 3 are the fuller pictures.
- A reserved-category candidate whose rank earns an unreserved seat can take a reserved seat of their own category instead, to get a better speciality. The lists mark these as “jump over” and “compensation” seats. Each is counted under the category printed for it, so a reserved seat can show a closing rank better than the unreserved one.
- In Round 3, 6 of the 33 seats allotted were reserved seats nobody had claimed, converted to unreserved. No seat was allotted under the quota for disabled candidates.
- It covers Ayurveda seats filled by this counselling. The college’s All India quota seats are filled by central counselling, and the Homoeopathy and Unani rows of the same lists are left out.
