Is REET the same as the Rajasthan 3rd Grade Teacher exam?

No. REET (conducted by BSER) is purely an eligibility test with lifetime validity. The '3rd Grade Teacher' recruitment exam, often called 'REET Mains', is a SEPARATE competitive exam conducted by RSSB/RSMSSB that REET-qualified candidates must clear to actually be selected for a teaching post.

Is REET certification valid for life?

Yes, as of recent government policy -- the REET certificate is now valid for a lifetime, a change from the earlier rule where it needed renewal every 3 years.
