Qualifying this CET is mandatory for recruitment into the following services:
Candidates must be between 18 and 40 years of age as of 2027-01-01. Educational requirements mandate a Senior Secondary (12th Grade) qualification or equivalent. Specific age relaxations are provided for reserved categories (SC, ST, OBC, EWS, and PwD) as per Rajasthan government norms, typically capped at 5 years for state-domiciled candidates, with specific provisions for women and ex-servicemen.
The exam is an offline OMR-based test comprising 120 multiple-choice questions totaling 240 marks. The duration is 2 hours and 30 minutes. Candidates are required to select from five options (A, B, C, D, E) for each question; if a question is not attempted, option 'E' must be darkened. A negative marking of 1/3 of the marks assigned to the question applies to incorrect answers and unattempted questions (if more than 10% are left blank).
Applications must be submitted exclusively via the Rajasthan SSO Portal. Applicants must complete One-Time Registration (OTR) before filling out the application form. Candidates are strictly advised against using the SSO IDs of others, as this leads to automatic rejection. Ensure that the live photo uploaded via the OTR portal meets specifications, as blurred or edited photos are grounds for disqualification.
