This change is aimed at ensuring a more robust system to prevent any attempts at exam rigging. Candidates will be required to fill out the fifth option on the OMR sheet, and failing to do so will result in disqualification.

  • Syllabus includes: Languages, Child Development, Pedagogy, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies
  • Exam structure: 150 marks, with a 2.5-hour duration

The official application link for REET 2024 will be made available on the Board of Secondary Education's website. Candidates are encouraged to visit the site during the application window to submit their forms.

This new development marks a significant step in Rajasthan's efforts to strengthen the teacher recruitment process while addressing issues of exam integrity.
