+2 51%
+3 43%
With B.ed 2 year…
Am i eligible to apply in otet. Please reply anyone.
Sorry, you are not eligible. For OTET, +2 requires 50% for General / 45% for SC-ST and graduation requires a minimum of 50% marks. Your graduation is 43%, so you cannot apply.
Your +2 percentage is fine, you should have appeared for CET. In +3, your percentage is a bit low, which is why your B.Ed is affected.
If you had completed CET, you would have been eligible for OTET Paper 1, which is for primary school.
