CTET 2026 Answer Keys: The CTET answer keys along with the response sheets for both papers are expected to be released soon. Candidates who appeared for the examination are eagerly awaiting the provisional key, as it will help them estimate their scores. In previous sessions, the provisional answer key was issued within 15 days of the exam. Based on this trend, the answer keys and response sheets are likely to be released today or in the first week of March.
Once released, candidates will be given an opportunity to raise objections against the provisional answer key. The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) will examine the challenges submitted and subsequently publish the revised final answer key. The results will be prepared on the basis of this final key.
