Teaching & Education Entrance Exam

The Uttar Pradesh Education Service Selection Commission (UPESSC) will administer the Uttar Pradesh Teacher Eligibility Test (UPTET) test. Qualifying for the exam is simple with the correct preparation strategy, which includes comprehending the exam pattern and curriculum, having the right study materials, and creating an effective study plan. Being familiar with the UPTET test pattern and curriculum is the first and most critical step towards effective exam preparation. Practising previous year's UPTET question papers is an important element of exam preparation. You can also take UPTET mock tests. Taking mock tests repeatedly allows applicants to enhance their time management skills.

Yes, a 2-year B.P.Ed. degree holder can apply for CTET, but with one condition, that they must have completed their first year of the program.

Here's a quick breakdown:

• Eligibility: Minimum requirement is completion of the first year of a four-year Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) degree or a two-year Diploma in Elementary Education (D.El.Ed.) or a two-year B.P.Ed. degree  (after finishing the first year).
• Paper Choice: B.P.Ed. graduates are only eligible for CTET Paper 2,  meant for teachers of Classes 6-8.

Essentially, completing the first year of any teacher training programme ensures foundational knowledge and skills before taking the CTET.
