CG TET Paper I is the primary-level paper of the Chhattisgarh Teacher Eligibility Test, the state eligibility examination for people who want to teach Classes I to V in Chhattisgarh schools, including government primary schools and many private unaided schools that require a TET-qualified teacher. It is run by the Chhattisgarh Professional Examination Board (CG Vyapam) on behalf of the state education department, and it is a eligibility test only: clearing it puts you in the candidate pool but does not by itself give you a posting, which comes through separate recruitment. The CG TET Paper 1 study guide has 5 sections and about 1,741 words.
