The Bihar CET B.Ed 3rd Merit List 2025 has been officially released, offering another chance for aspiring candidates to secure admission into B.Ed colleges across the state. This is a crucial opportunity for those who couldn’t make it through the 1st or 2nd merit lists.
🎓 What Is Bihar CET B.Ed?
The Bihar Common Entrance Test (CET) for B.Ed is a state-level entrance exam conducted to offer admission into 2-year Bachelor of Education (B.Ed) courses across government and private colleges in Bihar.
Conducted by Lalit Narayan Mithila University (LNMU), this exam determines merit-based entry for aspiring teachers into NCTE-recognized institutions.
📌 Why Is the 3rd Merit List Important?
The 3rd merit list is released when:
-
Seats remain vacant after the 1st and 2nd counselling rounds.
-
Candidates who were earlier waitlisted now have a fresh opportunity.
-
Colleges need to fill remaining slots before the final cut-off phase.
If you haven't secured a seat yet or missed the earlier rounds, this merit list could be your last shot at admission.
