RSSB REET Mains 2025 Exam Dates Out: Jan 17-20 for 7,123 Teachers

The Rajasthan Staff Selection Board (RSSB) has officially announced the examination dates for the REET Mains 2025 . This crucial recruitment drive aims to fill 7,123 primary and upper primary school teacher positions across various state schools in Rajasthan. The examinations are scheduled to take place from January 17 to January 20, 2026 .

The Rajasthan Eligibility Examination for Teachers (REET) Mains 2025 will be conducted over four consecutive days. Each examination day will feature two distinct shifts. The morning shift is set from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM , while the afternoon shift will run from 3:00 PM to 5:30 PM . Candidates must attend their allotted shift as per their specific subject and level.

This extensive recruitment initiative covers a wide range of teaching roles. Level 1 primary school teacher posts are available for candidates aspiring to teach Classes 1 to 5. These roles include both General Education and Sanskrit Education categories. For Level 2 upper primary school teacher posts , candidates can apply for positions to teach Classes 6 to 8 in subjects such as Science and Mathematics, Social Studies, English, Hindi, and Sanskrit. These positions are vital for strengthening the teaching staff in state-run educational institutions.

Candidate Guidelines and Identity Verification

The RSSB has issued mandatory guidelines for all candidates appearing for the examination. A strict photo verification process will be conducted at every examination center. Candidates are therefore required to ensure that their identity documents bear a recent photograph. The Board mandates that any photograph older than three years must be updated on the candidate’s official identity proof to avoid issues during verification.

Regarding admit cards, the Board stated that provisional e-admit cards will be made available for download solely through its official website. The exact dates for downloading these admit cards will be notified “in due course.” It is important for candidates to note that admit cards will not be dispatched to individuals via post or any other offline method.

REET Mains 2025 Examination Scheme

The examination will follow a specific pattern for answering questions. Each multiple-choice question will present five options, including option ‘E’. Candidates must mark option ‘E’ if they choose not to attempt a particular question. Answers must be carefully marked on the OMR sheet using only a blue ballpoint pen. Adherence to these instructions is crucial for valid evaluation.

Penalties apply for unmarked questions. If a question is left without any option marked (i.e., not even ‘E’ is selected), one-third of the marks allocated for that specific question will be deducted. Furthermore, candidates who leave more than 10 percent of the total questions entirely unmarked will face disqualification from the examination. To help prevent such errors, an additional 10 minutes will be provided at the end of the exam to review and confirm that an option has been marked for every question.
