Best MBBS Colleges in Bihar - Fees, Admission 2026, Courses, Placements

Hi, AIIMS Patna is the top Medical college in Bihar according to NIRF for the year 2025 under the Medical category. AIIMS was established in 2012 and has a collaborative relationship with the AYUSH. 

Patna Medical College and Hospital (PMCH) leads with the highest intake among government colleges, offering 250 MBBS seats. This makes it one of the biggest opportunities for NEET aspirants aiming for a government seat within the state quota. Check the table below for some colleges with MBBS seats.

Top Government MBBS Colleges	MBBS Seat Intake
AIIMS Patna MBBS Courses	125
Patna Medical College And Hospital MBBS Courses	250
Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences, Patna MBBS Courses	150
Darbhanga Medical College, Lehriasarai MBBS Courses	150
Nalanda Medical College Hospital MBBS Courses	200

Yes, private Medical colleges with lower tuition fees are rare to find as generally private colleges have higher tuition fees. Christian Medical College (CMC), Vellore, is the only private MBBS college in India that has fees comparable to some government colleges but is run by a private, charitable trust. For most other private colleges, “low fees” usually refers to state-quota seats, which are reserved for students from that specific state and have a lower, government-regulated fee.

The opening and closing rank depends on the category and quota of candidates. For the General category under All India, opening rank was 1461 and closing rank was 2737. The cutoffs are different when it comes to other categories or female candidates and even domicile of home state. Admission to Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) in All India Institute of Medical Sciences Patna is based on the scores obtained in the entrance exam NEET. Applicants are advised to confirm what category are they applying while checking for cut offs.

Private colleges charge significantly more than government colleges. Over a 4.5-year course, this adds up fast, so it's important to weigh the cost against the college's reputation, infrastructure, and placement/practice opportunities before committing to a private seat.

Hi, most of the MBBS colleges in Bihar accept admission only on the basis of NEET and Bihar NEET, therefore it would be quite difficult for you to pursue MBBS in Bihar on merit basis. 

Yes, but only for State Quota seats. If you're applying under the All India Quota (AIQ), a domicile certificate isn't required. So students from other states can still get into Bihar's medical colleges through the AIQ route without needing to prove state residency.

Yes, absolutely. As per NMC guidelines, admission in all private MBBS colleges in Bihar requires NEET UG qualification. There's no such thing as an expensive private college which can accept admission without a valid NEET score.

The BCECEB conducts the Undergraduate Medical Admission Counselling (UGMAC) for both government and private medical colleges. This centralised system ensures a merit-based seat allocation process for all NEET-qualified candidates .

There will be a total of 180 multiple-choice questions (MCQs), all of which will be compulsory to attempt. The syllabus of the exam consists of Physics, Chemistry and Biology subjects. The Biology subject is segregated between Zoology and Botany. On the other hand, the Chemistry subject is segregated into Organic, Inorganic and Physical Chemistry. Unlike last year, the subjects will not be divided into two sections.

According to the marking scheme, each correct question carries 4 marks, and there is a negative marking of 1 mark for each wrong answer. No marks will be awarded or deducted for unattempted questions. The following table brings the structure of the NEET exam.
