Eligibility Criteria
Educational Qualification
- Candidates should hold a master’s degree or equivalent postgraduate qualification from a recognised university or institution.
- General or unreserved category candidates are ordinarily required to secure at least 55% marks in the qualifying postgraduate examination.
- Candidates belonging to eligible reserved categories are generally required to have at least 50% marks, subject to the applicable CG SET rules.
- Candidates awaiting their final postgraduate result may be considered provisionally if permitted under the detailed examination notification.
- The subject selected for CG SET should normally correspond to the candidate’s postgraduate subject or an accepted related discipline.
Age Limit
- There is generally no upper age limit for appearing in the State Eligibility Test.
- Qualifying CG SET does not automatically guarantee appointment, and recruitment-specific age conditions may apply when candidates later apply for Assistant Professor vacancies.
- Candidates should verify all eligibility provisions in the detailed official notification.
Fees
- The examination application fee is payable online, where applicable, according to the candidate’s category.
- Any fee for challenging the model answer key will be specified in the objection notice.
- Category-wise application and objection fee amounts were not provided in the available notification details and should be checked on the official portal.
Selection Process
- Written Examination: Candidates appear for the CG SET papers in their chosen subject under the examination scheme prescribed by CG Vyapam.
- Answer Key and Objection Review: The model answer key is published, after which candidates may challenge disputed answers by submitting supporting documentary evidence.
- Final Answer Key and Result: Subject experts review the objections. The final answer key is then prepared and used to calculate scores and determine qualifying status.
A CG SET certificate establishes eligibility for Assistant Professor recruitment in accordance with applicable rules. It does not constitute a direct appointment or placement on a recruitment merit list.
