Paper 1 covers teaching aptitude, research methodology, reasoning ability, and general awareness. Combined qualifying marks require 40% aggregate for general category and 35% for reserved categories.
The examination is conducted twice yearly by National Testing Agency (NTA) in computer-based test format. Recent trends show increased focus on NEP 2020, research methodology, and contemporary educational issues.
Smart Preparation Strategy That Works
Start preparation with foundational concepts before advancing to complex theories. Create unit-wise study schedules allowing adequate time for revision and practice tests.
Focus on understanding rather than memorization. Educational concepts require application-based thinking, so connect theoretical knowledge with practical classroom scenarios. Regular practice with previous year papers builds familiarity with question patterns.
Maintain separate notebooks for important definitions, thinkers' contributions, and commission recommendations. Use mind maps for connecting related concepts across units. Daily revision of covered topics prevents knowledge gaps.
Join study groups or online forums for discussion and doubt clarification. Teaching concepts to others reinforces personal understanding and identifies knowledge gaps.
