Topics for each part, the marks split, where to find the official syllabus and how to prepare.
What is in Part A of the Nagaland B.Ed CET syllabus?
Part A has 60 common questions on teaching aptitude, general awareness, reasoning and English. The brochure describes these areas:
- Teaching aptitude: the ability to communicate, deal with children and recognise individual differences, along with analytical thinking and general intelligence.
- General knowledge of the environment around you and its use in society.
- Current events and everyday science that an educated person is expected to know.
- India and its neighbouring countries: history, culture, geography, ecology, economics, general policy and scientific research.
- Nagaland: the society, culture and heritage of its people.
- Reasoning: coding-decoding, odd one out and similar questions.
- English: reading comprehension passages and language proficiency.
What is in Part B, the pedagogy paper?
Part B has 40 questions on the pedagogy subject you chose, up to graduation level of Nagaland University syllabi. You get the paper for one subject only.
| Pedagogy | Topics to study |
|---|---|
| Mathematics | Graduation-level mathematics, including number work such as averages, squares and cube roots |
| Science | Graduation-level science: physics, chemistry and life sciences |
| Social Science | Graduation-level history, geography, political science and economics |
| English | Graduation-level English, including grammar such as parts of speech |
Your pedagogy must match your graduation subjects, so a B.Com. graduate takes Social Science and a B.Sc. graduate with Botany and Zoology takes Science.
What is the exam pattern and marking?
The test has 100 multiple-choice questions of 1 mark each, in English only, to be done in two hours.
| Part | Questions | Section | Marks |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | 1 to 20 | Teaching Aptitude | 20 |
| A | 21 to 40 | General Awareness and Reasoning | 20 |
| A | 41 to 60 | Language Proficiency (English) | 20 |
| B | 61 to 100 | Pedagogy subject: Mathematics, Science, Social Science or English (up to graduation level) | 40 |
| Total | 100 | 100 |
The brochure does not mention negative marking. If two candidates tie on total marks, the one with more Part B marks ranks higher, so the pedagogy paper matters most.
