REET Notes — Subject-wise Topic Notes in English
This page lists every subject-wise note written for the REET (Rajasthan Eligibility Examination for Teachers). Each note covers a single topic and follows the order in which that topic appears in the official REET syllabus, so you can either read a subject straight through or jump directly to whatever you are stuck on right now.
The notes are grouped into nine sections. Child Development & Pedagogy (CDP) is compulsory for both Level 1 and Level 2. The language sections — Hindi, English and Sanskrit — cover grammar together with language teaching methodology, because the paper draws questions from both. Mathematics and Environmental Studies (EVS) are aimed mainly at Level 1, while Science and Social Studies cover the optional Level 2 sections. The final group is REET Mains, the actual recruitment exam conducted by RSSB after you qualify.
Every topic includes definitions, the facts worth memorising, comparison tables and the points most likely to be asked in the exam, with Rajasthan-specific examples wherever they fit. Once you have read a subject you can practise it in the REET practice question bank and against the previous year papers. Each of these notes is available in Hindi as well, and all of them stay free.
