The study aimed at developing and presenting the validity evidence of a Teacher Aptitude Test (TAT) that could be used as one of the admission requirements in the College of Education of the University of Eastern Philippines Campus. Specifically, it aimed to determine the indices of difficulty and discrimination and the reliability of the constructed test. A descriptive research design was used and involved 224 freshman students. The main instrument used in the study is the developed Teacher Aptitude Test. Data were analyzed through item analysis and the Kuder-Richardson Formula 20. The analysis showed that most of the items in the developed Teacher Aptitude Test were accepted and passed the criteria for both indexes of difficulty and discrimination. In terms of the reliability of the test, the whole instrument obtained a good internal consistency, an indication that the developed test is highly reliable. Specifically, each component of the test possessed good and acceptable internal consistency. The developed Teacher Aptitude was deemed as a valid and reliable test. A total of 100 valid test items constituted the developed TAT after a series of validation processes were made.
