CTET Marking Scheme and Passing Marks
Candidates who appeared in the CTET exam can estimate their results based on the provisional answer key. However, for accurate results, they will have to wait for the final answer key. If objections filed based on the provisional answer key are found correct upon verification, those questions will be removed from the final answer key, and candidates will receive marks for those questions. A total of 150 questions are asked in the CTET exam, each carrying 1 mark. There is no negative marking in this exam.
