About 700 of them are students of six medical colleges while the rest of engineering and other technical institutes.
According to AKU Vice Chancellor S N Guha the examinations would be held at seven centres, including two in Patna and one each at Purnia, Gaya, Bhagalpur, Darbhanga and Muzaffarpur. At Patna, the examinations would be held at J D Women's College and Arvind Mahila College from 11 AM to 2 PM.

The teachers of local institutions would work as invigilators, but a team of observers consisting of senior teachers and government officials from Patna would visit all the centres to ensure fair conduct of examinations.

Apart from this, resource persons would be deputed at all the centres to explain to the centre superintendents the modalities of examinations and writing the computerized answer-books.

Guha said that evaluation of answer scripts would go on side by side with the examinations so that the results of all the examinations are published at the earliest. Special examinations were being planned for the institutions having delayed sessions and gradually, the sessions of all the technical institutions would be regularized.
