The Rajasthan Public Service Commission has officially released the final phase of results for its School Lecturer (1st Grade Teacher) recruitment 2024-25, concluding a months-long process that began with written exams in June and ended with the last subject-wise results on November 21, 2025. Over 2,202 teaching positions across Rajasthan’s government schools are now being filled, with cut-off marks published for every category and subject — a transparency move that has eased anxiety among tens of thousands of aspirants. The results, rolled out in stages from August to November, are now live on the official portal, and shortlisted candidates are being directed to prepare for document verification — the next and final hurdle before appointment.
Phased Rollout, Massive Scale
The Rajasthan Public Service Commission didn’t dump all results at once. Instead, it staggered releases to manage server load and ensure accuracy. The first wave came on August 20, 2025, covering core subjects like History, Political Science, and Geography. Then came English on September 20, followed by a major batch on October 30 that included Chemistry, Physics, and Mathematics. The Commerce result, long awaited by candidates in that stream, landed on November 3, 2025. The final updates on November 20–21 closed the loop for Urdu, Home Science, and Sociology. This wasn’t just administrative caution — it was a recognition of the scale. Over 450,000 candidates appeared across 33 districts, making this one of the largest teacher recruitments in Rajasthan’s history.
Cut-Offs Reveal the Real Competition
For the English subject alone, the cut-off for the General (UR) category stood at a staggering 282.97 out of 300 — a level of performance that suggests only the top 0.5% of candidates cleared it. In contrast, the Scheduled Caste (SC) cut-off was 162.77, Scheduled Tribe (ST) at 164.81, OBC at 184.30, and EWS at 189.00. These numbers aren’t arbitrary; they reflect the commission’s commitment to affirmative action while maintaining academic rigor. The disparity between UR and reserved category cut-offs is wider than in previous cycles, indicating a surge in competition among general category applicants. Experts say this mirrors a national trend: as government teaching jobs become more sought-after amid economic uncertainty, the bar keeps rising.
How to Check Your Result — And What Comes Next
Candidates can access their results in two ways: via the Rajasthan Public Service Commission’s official site at rpsc.rajasthan.gov.in or through the state’s Sso.rajasthan.gov.in portal. The results are PDFs — searchable, downloadable, and printable. Use Ctrl+F and type your roll number. No login is required for result lookup, but you’ll need your SSO credentials to download the scorecard, which includes section-wise breakdowns and qualifying status. The scorecard isn’t just a formality — it’s your ticket to document verification. Bring originals: degree certificates, caste certificates (if applicable), teaching eligibility proof, and ID. Missing even one? Your selection could be canceled.
Who’s Getting Hired — And Where
The vacancies are spread across disciplines, with Political Science leading at 225 posts, followed by Geography (210) and Physics (147). At the lower end, Home Science and Sociology each have just 16 openings — a reminder that demand doesn’t always match supply. These positions will be filled across urban centers like Jaipur and Jodhpur, but also in remote districts like Barmer, Jaisalmer, and Dungarpur, where teacher shortages have long hampered education quality. The RPSC has emphasized that postings will be based on merit-cum-preference, meaning high scorers get first pick of locations — a move designed to incentivize top performers to serve in underserved areas.
What the Commission Isn’t Saying — Yet
There’s a quiet tension in the air. While results are out, the schedule for document verification hasn’t been announced. No dates. No venues. No instructions beyond “stay tuned.” That’s typical for RPSC — they move slowly, and candidates are used to waiting. But this time, the delay feels different. With the academic year already underway in many schools, and vacancies unfilled, education departments are scrambling. Teachers’ unions are already pressuring the state to finalize appointments before December. If verification is delayed beyond mid-December, it could mean another semester without full staff in hundreds of government schools.
A Bigger Picture: Teaching in Rajasthan
The Rajasthan Public Service Commission has been under pressure for years to fix teacher recruitment bottlenecks. In 2021, over 1,500 vacancies went unfilled due to procedural delays. This year’s effort — with results delivered in under five months — is a marked improvement. Still, the system remains fragile. The commission’s chairman, Dr. Dharmendra Rathi, has publicly vowed to digitize the entire process by 2026. If that happens, future cycles could see results within weeks, not months. But for now, candidates are left in limbo — hopeful, exhausted, and waiting.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I’ve cleared the RPSC 1st Grade Teacher exam?
You’ve cleared the written exam if your name appears in the subject-wise provisional list published on rpsc.rajasthan.gov.in, and your score meets or exceeds the category-specific cut-off for your subject. The scorecard will explicitly state "Eligible for Document Verification." If your roll number is absent or your score is below the published cutoff, you were not selected for the next stage.
What documents do I need for verification?
You must carry original certificates: educational degrees, caste/category certificate (if applicable), Domicile certificate of Rajasthan, teaching eligibility proof (CTET/REET), photo ID, and recent passport-sized photographs. Photocopies are not accepted unless attested. Missing documents will lead to disqualification — even if you scored the highest in your category.
Why are the cut-offs so high for English compared to other subjects?
English has the highest number of applicants — many from urban areas and private school backgrounds — and is considered a high-preference subject. The cut-off of 282.97 reflects intense competition, not an unusually difficult paper. In contrast, subjects like Home Science or Urdu have fewer applicants, so cut-offs are lower even if the paper is equally challenging.
What if I find an error in my result or cutoff?
RPSC allows objections only during the provisional result window — which closed after November 21. No re-evaluation or rechecking is permitted after final results are declared. If you believe there’s a clerical error in your roll number or name, contact RPSC’s helpdesk at [email protected] with proof. But don’t expect changes to scores or cutoffs — those are final.
When will document verification begin?
RPSC has not announced dates yet, but based on past cycles, verification typically begins 3–4 weeks after final results. Expect notices by early December, with centers likely in Jaipur, Kota, Jodhpur, and Udaipur. Keep checking the official portal daily. Delays beyond mid-December could impact the 2026 academic calendar.
Will I be posted near my home?
Postings are based on merit and preference. Top scorers can choose districts from a list during verification. Lower-ranked candidates get assigned based on availability. While you can indicate preference, there’s no guarantee of home district posting — especially in high-demand areas like Jaipur or Ajmer. Rural postings are common for lower-ranked candidates, but they come with incentives like housing and travel allowances.
