JEE · NEET · Bhagalpur
You don't have to leave home at sixteen.
Two years of JEE and NEET preparation at Tilkamanjhi, after school hours, eleven hundred kilometres closer than Kota.
Chemistry · Class 11, month 1
Why does 4s fill before 3d, and then empty first?
Empty, 4s sits lower: n + l is 4 against 5. Once 3d holds electrons it drops below 4s, so 4s loses them first.
Atomic structure, again, from the beginning. Including for everyone who "did it in tenth".
Physics · Class 11, month 9
A planet is fastest when it is nearest the sun. What is being conserved?
Angular momentum. Gravity pulls along the line to the sun, so it has no torque about it. That is Kepler's second law.
The academy is named for this one. Watch the dot: it has been obeying the law since you got here.
Mathematics · Class 12, month 5
Find the area trapped between y = x² and y = x.
They cross at 0 and 1. Integrate x − x² between them: 1/2 − 1/3 = 1/6. The yellow part.
No formula sheets. You derive it once on the board, in front of everyone, and then it's yours.
Biology · Class 12, month 2
Scroll: four subjects
One strand reads 5′ ATGC 3′. Write its partner.
3′ TACG 5′. A pairs with T, G with C, and the two strands run in opposite directions.
NEET is 720 marks. Half of them are biology, and NCERT read properly covers most of those.

General instructions
- Go to school. Classes here start at four, after it ends.
- Nobody is enrolled before their Class 10 boards are over.
- Five hours a day is the ceiling, not the target. Monday is off.
- Sunday is test day. Your paper comes back on Tuesday with every wrong answer explained.
- No rank is promised. Anyone who promises you one is selling something.
- Leave whenever you like. The unused fee is returned within ten days.
Instructions 1, 2, 3 and 6 follow the Education Ministry's 2024 guidelines for coaching centres. We would do them anyway.
Which batch is mine?
Four batches, forty seats each, and no "foundation" classes for thirteen-year-olds. If you haven't sat your Class 10 boards yet, come back when you have.
NEET, two yearsYou finished Class 10 this year and want medicine.

What happens when I get it wrong?
A wrong answer is one of four things. You didn't know it, you misread it, you ran out of time, or you slipped in the arithmetic. They need four different fixes, and a total out of 300 can't tell them apart.

How did the last batch do? All of them.
A hoarding shows three faces. Here are all 240 students who started with us in 2024, one dot each, including the ones who left.
National comparisons are rounded from recent years: about 14 lakh students sit JEE Main for roughly 18,000 IIT seats, and about 23 lakh sit NEET for under 60,000 government MBBS seats.
What does it cost, and what if I leave?
One fee, with GST already in it, books and all 42 Sunday papers a year included. Move the last slider to see what comes back if you walk out.

If the fee is still out of reach, say so at the desk. The director decides the same day, on paper, and nobody in the batch is told.

For scale: two years in Kota with a hostel and a mess usually runs past ₹5 lakh before the train tickets. That is an estimate, not a quote from anyone.

Verma sir: "Rotational mechanics is still shaky. Staying back Thursday, home by 8:15."
One message a week, on Sunday evening. Attendance, the test, and one sentence from a teacher who has read the paper. Nothing during class, and no ranks of other people's children.
- Every sixth Saturday parents come in. Any other day, walk in after 7:30 pm. No appointment.
- A counsellor sits in Room 4 on Thursdays. No register and no form. Students go; nobody asks why.
- Phones stay in the bag from four to half past seven. Yours can ring the front desk.

JEE Main and NEET are both set in Hindi as well as English. So are our notes, the Sunday paper and the doubt desk. Start in Hindi, switch in any term, or never switch.
Am I ready?

Where, and when?
- Address
- Kepler Academy, near Tilkamanjhi Chowk, Bhagalpur 812001
- Office
- Tuesday to Sunday, 10 am to 8 pm. Closed on Mondays, like the classes.
- Sunday diagnostic
- 9:00 am, every Sunday, 90 minutes. Free, and you keep the marked paper.
- Coming from outside the city
- Students travel in from Sabour, Nathnagar, Sultanganj and Naugachia. Ask the desk who else comes from your side.
Is there a hostel?
No. The idea is that you sleep at home. For students from further out, the desk keeps a list of paying-guest rooms within walking distance that a staff member has visited, with what each one charges.
Do you arrange a "dummy" school?
No, and we won't recommend one. Classes begin at four so that you can attend a school that takes attendance. Your boards are part of this.
Can I move from JEE to NEET, or back?
In the first term, yes, without paying anything. Physics and chemistry are common to both; you would be catching up on one subject.
What if I miss a class?
Every class is recorded for enrolled students and stays up for two weeks. There is no online-only batch, because the error log needs your handwriting.
Do you prepare us for boards?
It is the same NCERT. From January of Class 12 the Sunday test alternates with a board-pattern paper, written long-hand.
