UPESSC Rejects UPTET 2026 Score Revision Requests
UPTET 2026 was a test for people seeking teacher eligibility in Uttar Pradesh.
The results were announced on August 26.
Some candidates asked for their marks to be changed.
They mentioned mistakes on OMR sheets, normalisation, and marks based on the answer key.
A six-member committee studied these requests.
The Commission said candidates had been given instructions for completing their OMR sheets.
It also said normalisation was announced in advance because the test took place in several shifts.
The Commission will not change marks or normalised scores for these reasons.
However, successful candidates can apply online to correct certain details on their certificates.
UPESSC rejected requests to revise UPTET 2026 scores over OMR errors, normalisation, and answer-key-based marks.
A six-member committee reviewed candidate representations and divided them into four categories.
The Commission said OMR instructions were provided and evaluation was fully automated.
UPTET 2026 was held on July 2, 3 and 4 in five shifts, with results declared on August 26.
Qualified candidates will be able to correct specified certificate details online and receive revised certificates.
