Frequently asked questions
REET में नेगेटिव मार्किंग है या नहीं?
इस पर स्रोतों में मतभेद है। कई स्रोत कहते हैं कि गलत उत्तर पर कोई अंक नहीं कटता। कुछ स्रोतों के अनुसार नए पाँच-विकल्प OMR नियम में खाली छोड़े गए प्रश्न पर 1/3 अंक कटता है। हम इसे असत्यापित मानते हैं — अपने परीक्षा वर्ष की आधिकारिक BSER अधिसूचना अवश्य देखें।
REET Level 1 और Level 2 में क्या अंतर है?
Level 1 कक्षा 1 से 5 तक पढ़ाने के लिए है और Level 2 कक्षा 6 से 8 के लिए। दोनों में 150 प्रश्न और 150 अंक होते हैं, लेकिन विषय अलग होते हैं। दोनों स्तरों के लिए अलग-अलग शैक्षणिक योग्यता आवश्यक है।
क्या REET पास करने पर सीधे नौकरी मिल जाती है?
नहीं। REET केवल पात्रता प्रमाणपत्र देता है। शिक्षक बनने के लिए इसके बाद अलग भर्ती परीक्षा देनी होती है और अंतिम चयन उसी के आधार पर होता है।
REET (Teacher Eligibility Test) की जानकारी कहाँ से जाँचें?
सबसे भरोसेमंद स्रोत Board of Secondary Education, Rajasthan की आधिकारिक अधिसूचना है (https://rajeduboard.rajasthan.gov.in)। आवेदन, पात्रता या पैटर्न से जुड़ा कोई भी निर्णय लेने से पहले वहीं से पुष्टि करें। इस पेज पर दी गई जानकारी 2026-08-03 को जाँची गई थी।
