Common Eligibility Test (CET) – Single test for Government job Exams | SSC, Banking, Railways, State
Why CET?
According to the details provided by the employee commission, the Commission has to cancel 9 exams partially or completely in the past five years. Such cancellation of exams is a complete waste of efforts and resources of both the aspirants and the Government. The reputation f SSC has also darkened in the eye of public. Candidates lose their precious time and effort that they have put in preparing for those exams.

| 1 | CGLE 2013 | Various irregularities and malpractices |

| 3 | CGLE 2014 | Loss of post examination material |
| 4 | CHSLE 2014 | Cheating and malpractice cases at Raipur, Chandigarh, Allahabad and Delhi |

Selection Process of CET

CET will be organized at three levels at low levels:
(i) Matriculation level

- One can select out of several competition levels to regard his needs and intellectual level in order to give his best output.
- The CET Score will be valid for 2 years. This score will help aspirants to appear for Tier II examinations which would be conducted independently by the respective recruiting agencies like SSC, Bank, Railway and other exams.

- It would be a huge drawback for the candidates preparing for Public Service Commission Examinations in Regional Languages. Because s per the committee Government will be conducting the CET only in English and Hindi medium. CET Exam will not be conducted in regional languages.
- According to the estimation, around 5 crores candidates might be registering for all of the above CET level exams. This would increase the competition level to the next level.
