CBSE CTET Exam Date Revised: Now Scheduled for 14th December 2024

In an important update for candidates preparing for the 20th edition of the Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET), the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has revised the exam date. As per the latest public notice (F. No. /CBSE/CTET/Dec./2024/e-73233/Revised Dated 09.10.2024), the CTET exam will now be held on 14th December 2024 (Saturday) instead of the previously scheduled date of 15th December 2024 (Sunday).

Why the Date Change?

The date change comes after the CBSE received feedback from candidates regarding the scheduling of other competitive exams in certain states and union territories on 15th December 2024. To ensure that candidates are not conflicted with multiple exams, CBSE has decided to pre-pone the CTET exam to 14th December 2024 (Saturday).

What If There Are Too Many Candidates in One City?

In cities where the number of registered candidates exceeds the seating capacity for 14th December, the CTET exam will also be conducted on 15th December 2024 (Sunday), allowing all candidates to take the exam without logistical issues.

Important Dates to Remember:

• CTET Exam Date: 14th December 2024 (Saturday)
• Alternate Exam Date (if needed): 15th December 2024 (Sunday)
• Last Date to Apply: 16th October 2024 (11:59 PM)

The online application process has already begun from 17th September 2024, and interested candidates must complete their applications before the deadline.
