AI SummarySuper-100 Programme is a state-level scheme of Uttarakhand government that gives free coaching for engineering and medical entrance examinations to 100 meritorious Class 12 Science stream students every year. The scheme runs under Samagra Shiksha Abhiyan and is handled by the Secondary Education Department, Government of Uttarakhand.
Every academic session the government selects 100 bright students from government schools and gives them high-quality coaching for JEE and NEET level exams. The coaching is fully free, and the state pays for faculty, study material, food and accommodation of the selected students.
Super-100 Programme - Introduction
Super-100 Programme works under the Samagra Shiksha scheme to support talented Class 12 Science students of Uttarakhand. The main aim is to help a bright student from a hill block or a government school who cannot afford, and often cannot reach, private coaching for engineering and medical entrance exams. The scheme bridges this gap by giving these students free and dedicated preparation support.
In the 2025 session the programme was launched by the School Education Minister for Class 12 Science students of government schools. A total of 100 students were selected on the basis of an entrance test. The offline coaching ran in Dehradun for 45 days from June 1 to July 15, with all facilities given free, including food, accommodation, study material and teachers for coaching. After the offline phase the students returned to their schools and received online coaching for the whole year, with continuous evaluation so they can prepare better for competitive exams.
The programme also takes the help of the Avanti Fellows organisation in running the coaching. The scheme is designed for social and geographic spread, so a student who topped Class 10 in a remote development block gets picked even if their marks would not place them in the state top 100 overall.

The selection process for Super-100 Programme is handled at the administrative level based on academic merit, and it runs offline through the development block. There is no self-application portal for students.
STEP 1 - Watch for the notification. The Secondary Education directorate and the district education offices announce the Super-100 selection for the session. There is no permanent open window, so the notification is the trigger to act.
