Time isn’t running that great for teaching aspirants; 94% of the applicants who took CTET ( Central Teacher Eligibility Test ) January 2012 couldn’t get 60% marks to get through the test. Mere 16% 0f 900,000 test takers managed to get through, the Paper I and Paper II tests are for primary and secondary teaching positions respectively.

Both papers are for 150 marks each, a candidate has to secure 60% to be considered CTET qualified, however SC / ST / OBC or PH candidates may get exemptions from Government, Local Bodies, Government aided and un – aided Schools.
