NTRCA Exam Syllabus and Mark Distribution (New System)
The 19th NTRCA exam process is now done in 2 steps. These include the preliminary MCQ exam and the viva (oral examination). The previous written exam phase has been removed. This new system has been introduced to make the process more efficient, aligning with the government’s broader educational reforms. In this new structure, the preliminary exam is more comprehensive, covering both general and subject-specific knowledge.
After that, those who qualify for the preliminary examination will appear directly for the oral test and upon passing will qualify to become a professional teacher. Below is a detailed discussion about the exam topics, syllabus, and marks for each phase.
Preliminary (MCQ) Exam
19th NTRCA candidates will participate in the preliminary examination with separate question papers in three stages (School Phase II, School Phase, and College Level). The preliminary examination is a Multiple Choice Question (MCQ) type carrying a total of 200 marks. This exam will have 200 questions and all answers are required in 2 hours. In case of answer verification, the OMR machine will evaluate your answer sheet. Each correct answer will earn you 1 mark, but an additional 0.25 marks will be deducted for each wrong answer.
Subjects and Marks: The subjects and marks distribution for the preliminary test are now divided into two distinct parts:
| Part A: General Subjects (for all candidates) | Marks |
| Bangla | 25 |
| English | 25 |
| General Mathematics | 25 |
| General Knowledge | 25 |
| Part B: Subject-Specific (based on applicant’s chosen subject) | Marks |
| Subject-Specific MCQ (e.g., Bengali, English, Physics, etc.) | 100 |
| Total Marks | 200 marks |
Eligibility: The NTRCA’s decision regarding candidate eligibility for the preliminary test is final. To pass and be eligible for the viva, you need a minimum of 40% (80 marks) overall in the preliminary exam.
Viva (Oral Examination)
The oral test is worth 20 marks. It consists of two parts: educational qualification certificates and a question-answer section. To be eligible for the merit list, you must score at least 40% (8 marks) in the oral examination.
Important Note: Unlike the previous 18th NTRCA, there is no separate 100-mark written exam. The selection process is now based on the combined performance of the 200-mark Preliminary MCQ exam and the 20-mark Viva.
NTRCA Result
We all know that the NTRCA phase is now done through preliminary and viva. The final result for the 19th NTRCA will be prepared based on the marks from these two phases. This is a key change from previous years where the written exam was the main factor.
The 19th NTRCA final result will be published based on the preliminary test of 200 marks and viva of 20 marks. Through this, you can apply and compete for the post of “Assistant Teacher” in the school or college of your choice in NGI Public Notification. The government’s goal is to complete this exam and publish the results before issuing the next gazette notification for teacher appointments.
The 19th NTRCA Result will be released on the official website http://ntrca.gov.bd. Perhaps the merit list or score list of all the candidates may be published in a PDF file.
