Eligibility for BPSC TRE 4.0 is a grid, not a list: four levels, each with its own academic requirement, its own teaching qualification and — the part that catches people — its own qualifying test. Holding CTET does not help you at Classes 9-12, and holding STET does not help you at Classes 1-8.

<p style="margin:0 0 16px;line-height:1.7">This tool applies the rules level by level and tells you not just whether you can apply but <em>what is blocking you</em>, because "go and sit STET Paper II" is something you can act on and "ineligible" is not.</p>
