How Is the OFSS Merit List Prepared?
Understanding the selection process can help students interpret their allotment result better. The OFSS software generates merit lists based on the following factors:
- Total seats available stream-wise in each school or college
- The order of institution and faculty preferences filled in the CAF
- Percentage of marks obtained in the Class 10 (Matriculation) examination
- Reservation provisions as per Bihar Government guidelines (SC, ST, BC, EBC, EWS, and women candidates)
- Students who have studied Class 10 from a particular school are given priority for admission to that same school, provided they listed it as an option, as per state government policy
