The Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) is a national-level exam conducted by CBSE twice a year, serving as a gateway for aspirants seeking a teaching career.
Preparing for an exam like CTET requires a high-end focus and a curated plan of action so that you can concentrate on weaker areas and pace stronger areas. The CBSE has announced the CTET exam date and will be held on 14th Dec, 2024. So candidates who have not yet started preparing, start now. This article aims to provide tips and strategies to prepare for the CTET Exam effectively.
The Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET), organized by CBSE, is designed to assess candidates for teaching roles at primary (Classes I-V) and upper primary (Classes VI-VIII) levels. The exam has two papers: Paper I for primary level and Paper II for upper primary level. Each paper includes 150 multiple-choice questions across various sections i.e. Child Development and Pedagogy, Language I, Language II, Mathematics, and Environmental Studies in Paper I, while Paper II includes Mathematics & Science or Social Studies or language for subject specialization. Candidates are given 2.5 hours per paper, with 1 mark per question and no negative marking. Understanding this structure is essential for targeted preparation and effective time management during the exam.
The CTET exam is comprised of 2 papers for different exam levels to test your knowledge of the subjects on different levels. Paper II takes place in the morning session, commencing at 9:30 AM and concluding at Noon, which is to check your subject to teach primary grade (I to V classes). Paper I takes place in the afternoon session, starting at 2:30 PM and ending at 5:00 PM, and evaluates your subject knowledge level for elementary grade (VI to VIII classes).
The way you approach CTET Exam preparation changes the results completely. No matter whether you are preparing for many years or just starting your CTET exam preparation, the candidate approach carries the actual weight in the success of the CTET Examination. Follow a strict study routine, dedicate hours in a day, focus on key areas, and regularly practice with mock tests and previous years' question papers. Here are some essential tips for a well-structured study plan:
