I have done D.Ed and B.Sc in Biology. Am I eligible to appear in CTET paper 2 in social science?

According to the eligibility criteria, you are eligible to appear for CTET Paper 2 in social Science. The basic criteria are that you have completed your graduate degree and either a B.Ed. Or D.Ed. However, since you are a biology graduate, the social studies question may become a challenge in CTET Paper 2 and also while applying for a teaching post at the upper primary level, i.e., classes 6 to 8. In question paper 2, there are a total of five parts, out of which parts 2 (mathematics and Science) and 3 (social studies and social Science) are optional. You will be required to answer 60 questions from any one section as filled out by you in your online application form. Since you want to go for social Science, the questions will come from topics such as history, geography, social and political life, etc., which you might not have studied in depth. Also, during the interview, you will be asked why you chose social Science after doing a B.Sc. In Biology. Therefore, you are advised to select Mathematics and Science for appearing in CTET Paper 2.
