Hello there,

No, you are not eligible for CTET because the eligibility criteria require at least 50% in 12th or Graduation along with the required teacher training qualifications (like B.Ed or D.El.Ed).

CTET Eligibility Criteria:

  1. For Paper 1 (Class 1-5) 50% in 12th + D.El.Ed/B.El.Ed (Relaxation for SC/ST/OBC/PwD).

  2. For Paper 2 (Class 6-8) 50% in Graduation + B.Ed (Relaxation available).

Even though you have 61% in M.A. , CTET considers only 12th and Graduation marks , so you don’t qualify .


I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you and wishing you all the best for your bright future.

Hello

The eligibility for becoming a Hindi teacher depends on state rules and qualifications . Clearing CTET is essential but specific states may not consider your high school math marks as a criterion for Hindi teacher eligibility. Instead, they focus on:

1. Educational Qualifications : Bachelor's degree with Hindi as a subject.

2. Teacher Training : B.Ed or equivalent.

3. Passing CTET/STET  : Necessary for government teaching jobs.

Above qualifications and clear CTET, your math marks in high school shouldn't be a barrier to becoming a Hindi teacher.

Hope this helps you .

Thank you
