WEIGHTAGE OF TET SCORES IN THE TEACHER RECRUITMENT
OF THE STATE:
The weightage to TET scores shall be
provided in the Teacher Recruitment of the State Government. i.e., 20%
weightage for TET and 80% weightage for Written Test in Teacher Recruitment
Test (TRT) based on which selection lists shall be prepared.
However, mere qualifying the TET
would not confer a right on any person for recruitment/ employment as it is
only one of the eligibility criteria for appointment.
