The 4th Merit List is often the last chance for many aspirants. Seats left vacant after the first three rounds are filled in this stage. For candidates, this is the final opportunity to secure admission into B.Ed colleges without losing an academic year.
For colleges, this round ensures that maximum seats are filled, helping institutions to start the academic session smoothly without major vacancies.

-
School Teaching: Eligibility to apply for teaching positions in government and private schools.
-
Eligibility for TET/CTET: Graduates can sit for Teacher Eligibility Tests, a requirement for government teaching jobs.

Private Coaching and EdTech Roles: Opportunities in private institutions, online teaching platforms, and coaching centers.
-
Further Studies: Students can pursue an M.Ed or higher degrees in education and research.
-

This makes securing admission through the CET BEd exam an important step in shaping a teaching career.
