The wait for the Bihar STET 2025 result is nearing its end for millions of aspiring teachers in the state. The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) is poised to announce the outcomes of the Secondary Teacher Eligibility Test (STET) in the coming weeks. This result is a critical gateway for candidates aiming to secure teaching positions in Bihar's secondary and higher secondary schools.
Exam Conduct and Anticipated Result Timeline
The computer-based Bihar STET examination was held across the state from October 14 to October 31, 2025. This year, the test witnessed a massive turnout with over 4 lakh (400,000) candidates appearing for the two papers. Paper-1 was for the Secondary level, while Paper-2 was for the Higher Secondary level.
While the BSEB has not made an official announcement regarding the exact result date, earlier indications pointed towards a release in the second week of December 2025. However, recent media reports suggest a slight delay, with results now speculated to be declared either in the last week of December 2025 or the first week of January 2026. Candidates are strongly advised to monitor the official website, bsebstet.org, for the latest and most accurate updates.

Eligibility Criteria: Age and Educational Qualifications
Qualifying the STET is mandatory for eligibility in the upcoming BPSC Teacher Recruitment Exam-4 (TRE-4). The board has set specific criteria for age and educational background.
The maximum age limit for general category candidates is 37 years. As per government norms, age relaxations are provided for reserved categories:
- Women, BC, and MBC candidates: 3 years relaxation.
- SC and ST candidates: 5 years relaxation.
- Persons with Disabilities (PwD) candidates: 10 years relaxation.
Educational qualifications vary for the two papers:
For Paper-1 (Secondary level), candidates must possess a Graduation degree with at least 50% marks in the relevant subject along with a B.Ed. degree. Certain equivalent degree combinations are also accepted.
For Paper-2 (Higher Secondary level), a Master's degree in the relevant subject is required, coupled with a B.Ed. or integrated degrees like BA-B.Ed./B.Sc.-B.Ed. It is important to note that the minimum percentage requirement is lower for candidates from reserved categories.
In this crucial waiting period, candidates should rely solely on official communications from the Bihar School Examination Board and avoid falling for unverified rumours circulating on social media or other platforms. The STET 2025 result will ultimately determine who moves forward to seize teaching opportunities in Bihar's government schools.
