The Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) has officially announced that the Assistant Education Development Officer (AEDO) Exam 2026 will take place from April 14 to April 21, 2026. This exam is crucial for candidates seeking to fill one of the 935 vacancies available in the state of Bihar.

The BPSC AEDO Exam will be conducted in an offline mode and will utilize an OMR-based format. Candidates will be required to complete the examination over six different dates, specifically on April 14, 15, 17, 18, 20, and 21. Each paper will last for a duration of two hours, and the total marks for the exam will be 300.

As part of the selection process, candidates will undergo a written examination followed by document verification. The exam will consist of papers in General Language, General Knowledge, and General Aptitude, assessing a broad range of competencies necessary for the role of Assistant Education Development Officer.

It is important to note that the BPSC has implemented a negative marking scheme for this examination, with a deduction of one-third of a mark for each incorrect answer. This measure aims to encourage candidates to answer questions with greater certainty.

Eligibility for the BPSC AEDO Exam requires candidates to possess a graduate degree. This requirement ensures that applicants have a foundational level of education suitable for the responsibilities associated with the position.

The BPSC had initially scheduled the AEDO Exam for January 2026; however, it was postponed to April 2026. This change has prompted candidates to prepare for the exam with the new dates in mind. The official website for the BPSC, bpsc.bih.nic.in, will provide further details, including the release of the admit card for the exam.

As the exam dates approach, candidates and stakeholders in the education sector are closely monitoring developments related to the BPSC AEDO Exam. Official statements from the BPSC regarding the exam logistics and candidate preparation resources are anticipated in the coming weeks.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding any additional changes to the exam format or schedule. Candidates are advised to stay updated through the official BPSC website for the latest information.
