This is your entry pass to the exam. But before you rush to download it, let's understand everything you need to know to make your exam day smooth, stress-free, and successful.

 How to Download Your Admit Card Right Now 

Step 1: Visit the Official Website Only

Listen, this is super important. There are tons of fake websites out there trying to steal your information. Only use the official website mentioned in your application confirmation email.

Here's what you need to do:

  •  Open your browser
  •  Type the official URL directly
  •  Never click on random links from unknown sources 
  •  Bookmark the official site for future use

Pro Tip: If you're not sure about the official website, check your application confirmation email or SMS. The authentic link is always mentioned there.

Step 2: Login With Your Credentials

You'll need:

  • Your Registration Number (check your email)
  • Your Password or Date of Birth
  • Sometimes your registered mobile number

Forgot your password?

Don't panic! Use the "Forgot Password" option right away. It usually sends a reset link to your registered email within minutes.

Step 3: Download and Save Multiple Copies

Once you're logged in, you'll see the download link for your admit card. Click it and:

Save the PDF in at least 3 different places

Why so many copies?

Because technology fails at the worst possible time. Having backups means you're always prepared.

Step 4: Print It Out (Yes, Physical Copies!)

Take at least 3-4 printouts on good quality paper. Keep them in different places

Important: Make sure the printout is crystal clear. Blurry photos or smudged text can create problems at the exam center.

 Verify Every Single Detail on Your Admit Card 

You've downloaded it, but hold on! Don't just print and forget. Spend 5 minutes checking everything carefully.

What to Check:

Personal Details:

Is your name spelled correctly?

Is your date of birth accurate?

Is your category (SC/ST/OBC/General) correct?

Is your photograph clear and recognizable?

Exam Details:

Exam date and time

Exam center name and address

Your roll number

Reporting time (this is NOT the exam start time!)

Important Information:

Exam duration

Number of questions

Negative marking details (if any)

Found an Error? Act Fast!

If you spot any mistake:

Don't ignore it or Don't wait for exam day ,contact the helpdesk IMMEDIATELY Email with your registration number and Keep proof of communication

Even a small spelling mistake in your name can cause big problems during document verification. Fix it now!

 Critical: Aadhaar-Based Biometric Authentication 

This is where many candidates face issues on exam day. Pay close attention!

What is Biometric Authentication?

Before you enter the exam hall, your fingerprints or iris will be scanned and matched with your Aadhaar database. This is done to prevent impersonation and ensure fairness.

Think of it like: Airport security, but for exams!

What You MUST Carry

  • You need your original Aadhaar card.
  • Soft copy on phone: Usually NOT accepted
  • Physical Aadhaar card: Always accepted

The Locked vs Unlocked Problem

Here's something most candidates don't know: Your Aadhaar can be "locked" in the UIDAI system for security.

If your Aadhaar is locked on exam day, the biometric authentication will FAIL!

How to Check and Unlock Your Aadhaar:

Step 1: Go to the official UIDAI website

Step 2: Find the "Lock/Unlock Biometrics" service

Step 3: Enter your Aadhaar number and OTP

Step 4: Check if it's locked Step 5: If locked, unlock it for exam day

Do this at least 2-3 days before your exam!

Special Note for Young Candidates

Did you get your Aadhaar before you turned 15? You MUST update your biometrics after age 15.

Why? Because your fingerprints change as you grow. Old biometric data won't match current fingerprints.

What to do:

Visit nearest Aadhaar center and get biometric update 

 Essential Documents Checklist for Exam Day 

Let's make this super simple. Here's exactly what you need to carry:

Absolutely Mandatory (No Entry Without These!)

1. Admit Card

2. Original Photo ID Proof

Choose ONE from these:

Aadhaar Card (most important for biometric)/Voter ID Card/Passport/Driving License/PAN Card/Government-issued photo ID

Critical Rule: The name on your ID must EXACTLY match the name on your admit card. Even one letter difference can cause problems!

3. Additional ID Proof

Just in case there's any confusion, a second ID gives you backup

4. Extra Admit Card Copies

Keep atleast one extra admit card with you, so that if anything happens to the admit card you have a backup

Murphy's Law: The one you need will tear!

5. For SC/ST Candidates: Travel Authority

  • If you're claiming travel reimbursement
  • Along with all travel tickets and receipts

 Exam Day Timeline: When to Reach and What Happens 

Understanding Reporting Time vs Exam Time

 Exam Reporting & Gate Closing Time
Shift Reporting Time Gate Closing Exam Starts
01 07:30 AM 08:30 AM 09:00 AM
02 11:15 AM 12:15 PM 12:45 PM
03 03:00 PM 04:00 PM 04:30 PM
Gate closing time is strict. Late entry is not allowed. 

Reporting Time: When you must reach the center

Exam Start Time: When the actual exam begins

These are NOT the same!

Usually, reporting time is 60-90 minutes before the exam starts. This time is needed for:

  • Entry verification
  • Biometric authentication
  • Security check
  • Seating arrangement
  • Instructions briefing

Your Ideal Timeline

Let's say your reporting time is 7:30 AM:

Reach the venue atleast 30 minutes(,ie 7:00 AM) before the mentioned reporting time. It save you from last minute rush.

What If You're Late?

Hard truth: Most exam centers DO NOT allow late entry after the reporting time ends.

Even if you're 5 minutes late, you might be denied entry. There are usually no exceptions, no matter how genuine your reason.

That's why reaching early is NON-NEGOTIABLE! 

 What to Expect at the Exam Center 

The Invigilators Are There to Help

The staff at the exam center includes:

  • Invigilators: Monitor the exam
  • Technical team: Fix computer issues
  • Security personnel: Manage entry/exit
  • Coordinators: Handle overall management

Be polite and cooperative with everyone. They're doing their job, and they can help you if you have genuine issues.

Your Conduct Inside the Hall

DO:

  • Follow all instructions immediately
  • Raise your hand if you have issues
  • Stay calm and focused
  • Use washroom before exam starts
  • Keep eyes on your own screen/paper

DON'T:

  • Talk to other candidates
  • Look at others' screens
  • Make suspicious movements
  • Argue with invigilators
  • Use any electronic device
  • Leave your seat without permission

Remember: You're being watched. Any suspicious behavior can lead to disqualification.

 Computer-Based Test: What You Should Know 

Before the Exam Starts

When you sit at your computer:

1. Check Everything especially whether your Mouse working, Keyboard responding, clear screen  and your details displayed correctly?

2. Instructions Screen

If Technology Fails

Computer hangs? Screen freezes? Mouse stops working?

DON'T PANIC!

Step 1: Raise your hand immediately

Step 2: Inform the invigilator clearly

Step 3: Wait for technical team

Step 4: Don't touch anything yourself

Your answers are usually auto-saved every few seconds on the server. You won't lose your work.
