Here’s an article on the Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) Exam Calendar for 2025-2026 — what it covers, why it matters, and how aspirants should use it.

What is the BPSC Exam Calendar? – The BPSC Exam Calendar is a schedule published by the Bihar Public Service Commission that lists candidate-important dates for various recruitment examinations.

This includes dates for notifications, application windows, preliminary exams, mains/written exams, interviews, and results.

The calendar gives candidates a roadmap of when different examinations will occur, allowing them to plan their preparation and application accordingly.

Why This Calendar Matters to Aspirants

Having access to the BPSC Exam Calendar is extremely useful for several reasons:

• Long-term planning: Knowing the exam dates well in advance lets an aspirant create a study schedule, allocate time for different subjects, and decide when to start revising.
• Application timing: The calendar informs when notifications will be released and when applications open/close so no deadlines are missed.
• Focus allocation: When multiple exams are happening in the same year, the calendar helps you prioritise which one to prepare for when, and avoid last-minute rush for multiple posts.
• Strategy for Prelims → Mains: Since many BPSC exams follow the “Prelims → Mains → Interview” pattern, knowing how much time lies between them helps you plan for both phases simultaneously rather than starting Mains only after Prelims.
• Avoid surprises: Because the calendar is official and public, you are less likely to be caught off-guard by sudden dates, postponements, or overlapping exams.

What to Keep in Mind When Using the Calendar

Even though the calendar gives you a schedule, there are a few caveats and tips to use it wisely:

• “Tentative” vs “Confirmed”: Many dates shown are tentative. The Commission may update or postpone them, so always check the official website for updates.
• Multiple posts/different patterns: The BPSC handles many different kinds of posts (CCE, teaching posts, clerk posts, engineering posts etc.), each with its own pattern, syllabus and phases. Don’t assume one pattern fits all.
• Overlap of exams: If there are multiple recruitment drives in the same year, keep an eye on overlapping dates so you manage application fees, study time, and attempts properly.
• Phase-wise preparation: For exams with multiple phases (Prelims→Mains→Interview), start preparing for all phases from the beginning rather than focusing only on Prelims.
• Vacancy numbers matter: While the calendar gives dates, also check the number of vacancies, competition level and previous cut-offs to gauge effort needed.
• Stay updated: Bookmark the official BPSC website and regularly check it for notifications, corrections, or announcements related to the calendar.

Looking Ahead: 2026 and Beyond

While much of the calendar is focused on 2025, many exam cycles spill into early 2026 (interviews, result declarations, etc.). Aspirants should not treat 2025 as a closed window — for example some result/merit lists may get finalised in 2026.

The calendar helps you see the full recruitment workout, not just the exam day. Also, the Commission may release a fresh calendar for 2026 with new posts, so anticipate updates. 

Conclusion

In short, the BPSC Exam Calendar for 2025-26 is a critical document for anyone serious about a government job in Bihar through BPSC.

It gives you foresight, helps you plan, and reduces surprises. But it’s not just about knowing “which date is exam X” — it’s about building your preparation around those dates, being proactive, and staying updated on changes.

If you’re preparing for any BPSC exam, download the calendar immediately, mark your relevant exams, and align your study plan accordingly.
