Candidates who appeared for the 21st edition of the Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) are eagerly waiting for the release of the response sheets and answer keys for both papers. Along with the provisional answer keys, the board is also expected to upload candidates’ response sheets, allowing examinees to estimate their likely scores before the official results are announced.

Once the CTET answer key is released, candidates will be given a limited window to raise objections if they notice any discrepancies in the provisional answers. The board permits challenges to be submitted online within a specified period, usually a few days from the date of publication.
