The online application for the 51st Special BCS Exam has started, and candidates can apply until October 25, 2026. The Bangladesh Public Service Commission said the examination may be held in November 2026.
The PSC published the syllabus for the 51st special BCS exam on its website on Wednesday, September 30. The commission has not yet announced the exact date and time of the examination.
According to the PSC notice, there will be no separate preliminary examination for this special BCS. Candidates will instead sit for a 200-mark written examination in multiple-choice question format.
The detailed examination schedule will be published later on the PSC website and through the media.
51st Special BCS Exam Pattern and Marks
The written examination will have 200 questions. Each correct answer will carry one mark, while 0.50 marks will be deducted for each wrong answer.
Bangla, English, Bangladesh Affairs, and International Affairs will carry 20 marks each. Mental Ability and Mathematical Reasoning will carry 10 marks each.
The remaining 100 marks will cover subjects related to the candidate’s respective cadre or post.
As it is a Special BCS examination, the written test will be held only at a centre in Dhaka. Candidates have been advised to follow the official PSC notice for further instructions.
Doctor Recruitment Plan
The oral examination will carry 100 marks. The PSC will use the written and oral examinations to select candidates for government health services.
Under the recruitment plan, 5,000 doctors will be appointed through this special BCS. Of them, 4,700 will be appointed as Assistant Surgeons or Medical Officers.
The remaining 300 doctors will be appointed as Dental Surgeons. They are expected to work in government hospitals at upazila and union levels across Bangladesh.
PSC sources said the examination process would not be lengthy or complicated. The recruitment plan aims to reduce doctor shortages in government hospitals.
The final appointment process will begin after the PSC completes the written and oral examinations.
