2025 ranking of preparatory classes de PC

2025 ranking of scientific CPGEs by DAUR

DAUR presents its new ranking of scientific CPGEs (Classes Préparatoires aux Grandes Écoles) for 2025, covering all streams - with the exception of ATS Civil Engineering. The streams concerned are:

• MP: Mathematics and Physics

• MPI: Mathematics, Physics and Computer Science

• PC: Physics and Chemistry

• PSI: Physics and Engineering Sciences

• PT: Physics and Technology

• BCPST: Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Earth Sciences

• TSI: Technology and Industrial Sciences

• TPC: Technology, Physics and Chemistry

• TB: Technology and Biology

• ATS GI: Adaptation Techniciens Supérieurs - Génie Industriel (Advanced Technician Training - Industrial Engineering)

Innovative methodology

Unlike rankings based on feedback from institutions, DAUR's method is based directly on SCEI results. For example, admission to the École Polytechnique is worth more points than admission to the ENSTA Paris, which is worth more than admission to the Centrale Lyon, for the nearly 400 branches accessible after the CPGE.

In addition, DAUR takes into account students' choice of repeating a year. So, even if a student admitted to CentraleSupélec decides to repeat a year (which is expected to be the case for more than 20 students in 2024, in order to attempt the ENS or X), the prep school concerned will be credited with the corresponding points.
