The Andhra Pradesh Teacher Eligibility Test (AP TET) 2024 results have been declared, with a total of 1,87,256 candidates out of 3.6 lakh passing the exam. This translates to an overall pass percentage of 50.79%. The AP TET is a crucial gateway for aspiring teachers in Andhra Pradesh, as it assesses their competency and eligibility for teaching positions in government schools. The passing score for the exam varies depending on the candidate's category.
To qualify for the AP TET, general category candidates need to secure a minimum of 60% marks. Candidates belonging to the Backward Classes (BC) category require a minimum of 50% marks, while Scheduled Caste (SC), Scheduled Tribe (ST), differently-abled, and ex-servicemen category candidates must achieve a minimum of 40%. These qualifying scores reflect the state's commitment to promoting inclusive education and providing equal opportunities for all aspiring teachers.
The AP TET 2024 exam was conducted between October 3 and 21, with two daily sessions - one in the morning and one in the afternoon. The final answer key was released on October 30 after candidates were given the opportunity to raise objections against the initial answer key. The passing certificate is valid for a lifetime, allowing successful candidates to apply for teaching positions in government schools throughout their careers.
The AP TET score holds significant weight in the state's teacher recruitment process, contributing 20% of the total weightage for selection. The remaining 80% is determined by the Teacher Recruitment Test (TRT) written exam. The TRT further evaluates candidates' subject knowledge and teaching skills, ultimately determining the final selection lists for teaching positions. This two-tiered assessment system ensures that only the most qualified and competent individuals are chosen to shape the future of students in Andhra Pradesh.
The announcement of the AP TET 2024 results is a significant milestone for aspiring teachers in the state. Those who have successfully cleared the exam can now look forward to pursuing their careers in education. The results also highlight the importance of the AP TET in ensuring the quality of education provided in government schools. By setting a high bar for eligibility, the state aims to create a pool of talented and dedicated teachers who are equipped to provide a quality education to students in Andhra Pradesh.
