CTET has no rank list. You either qualify or you do not. You need 60% or more, which is 90 out of 150 in a paper. CBSE itself does not lower this mark for reserved categories; the bulletin says schools and recruiting bodies may give concessions to SC, ST, OBC and differently abled candidates under their own reservation rules. Many states and coaching sites quote 55% (82 or 83 marks) for reserved categories, but this is set by the employer, not by CBSE.
Qualifying marks (per paper, out of 150)
| Category | Required |
|---|---|
| All candidates (as per CBSE/NCTE) | 60% = 90 marks |
| SC / ST / OBC / differently abled | Concession decided by the employing school or government under its reservation policy |
