NRA CET 2022: National Testing Agency (NTA) has constituted an expert advisory committee to recommend a standard syllabus and pattern for the Common Eligibility Test (CET).
The NRA CET will be held twice a year, with results valid for three years. Every year, candidates can retake the Common Eligibility Test to improve their scores.
Candidates can apply for jobs in banking, the SSC, and the railways based on their score. SSC, IBPS, and RRBs will no longer administer prelims/tier 1 exams.
Each district of the country will have at least one NRA CET exam center. In the Ladakh district, there will be two centers. Candidates will have less work to do in applying for and taking numerous prelims/tier 1 exams if there is only one screening examination.
