What is REET?
The Rajasthan Eligibility Examination for Teachers (REET) is the state-level teacher eligibility test conducted by the Board of Secondary Education, Rajasthan (BSER), Ajmer. It certifies whether a candidate is eligible to be appointed as a teacher in the government schools of Rajasthan. Like the national CTET, REET is an eligibility test — clearing it does not itself give a job, but it is a mandatory qualification to apply for Rajasthan's teacher recruitment.
REET is held at two levels. Level 1 is for those who want to teach primary classes (Classes 1 to 5) as a primary teacher, and Level 2 is for upper primary classes (Classes 6 to 8) as an upper primary teacher. Each level is a single 150-mark paper of 150 objective questions answered in 2 hours 30 minutes, covering Child Development & Pedagogy, two languages, and Mathematics with Environmental Studies (Level 1) or a subject stream (Level 2). There is no negative marking, so accuracy and coverage matter more than guessing strategy.
