CTET paas karna mushkil nahi — sahi strategy chahiye. Har saal lakh candidates dete hain, par pass rate ~10% rehta hai kyunki log pedagogy ko halka lete hain aur previous-year papers nahi lagate. Coaching ki zarurat nahi — ye plan follow karo.
Pehle samjho: kya padhna hai
Paper 1 (Class 1-5): Child Development & Pedagogy (30), Language 1 (30), Language 2 (30), Maths (30), EVS (30). Paper 2 (Class 6-8): CDP (30), 2 languages (30+30), aapka subject (60). CDP dono papers ka dil hai — 30 marks pakke, theory se aata hai (Piaget, Vygotsky, Kohlberg, NCF 2005, learning disabilities).
30 din ka realistic plan
Din 1-10: CDP complete — ek chapter theory, uske 30 MCQ daily. Din 11-16: Language 1 (Hindi) — vyakaran basics + language pedagogy. Din 17-20: Language 2 (English) — roz comprehension. Din 21-25: Maths/EVS ya apna subject — NCERT ke concepts class 1-8. Din 26-30: Sirf previous year papers + weak areas. Roz 4 ghante kaafi hai.
