What is the Odisha DElEd CT Answer Key?

The Odisha DElEd CT Answer Key is an official document released by SCERT Odisha that contains the correct answers to all the questions asked in the CT Entrance Exam 2026. Since the exam is conducted in an online CBT mode with Section I (30 marks) and Section II (60 marks), the answer key allows candidates to:

  • Cross-check their marked responses against the correct answers
  • Calculate their probable score before the official result is declared
  • Get an estimate of whether they are likely to qualify for admission counselling
  • Raise objections against any answer they believe is incorrect, with supporting evidence

Odisha CT Answer Key 2026 – How to Raise Objection

If a candidate finds that the answer marked in the official Answer Key is incorrect, they can object to the specified window. Here is the expected process, based on how SCERT Odisha/SAMS Odisha has handled objections for similar entrance exams (such as the Odisha B.Ed Entrance):

  1. Log in to the SAMS Odisha portal using your Application ID and password
  2. Navigate to the “Raise Objection” or “Challenge Answer Key” tab
  3. Select the question number(s) you wish to challenge
  4. Upload supporting documents/evidence (such as textbook references or authoritative sources) justifying your claim
  5. Pay the prescribed objection fee, expected to be Rs. 200 per question
  6. Submit the objection form before the deadline
  7. Save the acknowledgment/confirmation for future reference

How to calculate the score using Odisha DElEd CT Answer Key 2026?

Candidates can estimate their expected marks by comparing their responses with the official answer key. They need to count the number of correct answers and apply the marking scheme mentioned in the examination guidelines. Candidates should check the official notification for the exact marking scheme before calculating their final expected score.

  • Correct Answer: +1 Mark awarded
  • Incorrect Answer: Negative marking (typically -0.25 marks per wrong answer, if applicable as per exam guidelines)
  • Unattempted Questions: 0 Marks
  • Score Calculation Formula
  • Estimated Score = (Total Correct Answers X 1) – (Total Incorrect Answers X Negative Mark Weight)

What’s Next After the Odisha DElEd CT Answer Key 2026?

After the release of the answer key, candidates can raise objections from 13th to 15th August 2026 if they find any errors, after which the officials will review all challenges submitted by candidates.
