Correction deadlines are not mentioned in the official notice, so do not delay reporting issues.

6. Documents to Carry on Exam Day

Carry only what is required. Extra items create unnecessary stress.

Mandatory:

  • Printed admit card (hard copy)
  • One original photo ID proof (Aadhaar, PAN, Voter ID, Passport, or Driving License)

Recommended:

  • Two passport-size photographs (same as application)
  • Blue or black ballpoint pen

Do not carry:

  • Mobile phones, smartwatches, calculators, or any electronic gadgets

7. Exam Day Instructions - Explained Simply

  • Reach the exam centre at least 45 minutes early to complete verification calmly.
  • Late entry can lead to disqualification-this is strictly enforced.
  • Wear simple, comfortable clothing. No specific dress code is mentioned, but avoid accessories that can cause delays.
  • Follow invigilator instructions without argument. Small misunderstandings can escalate unnecessarily.

8. Common Mistakes Candidates Make

Be aware of these avoidable errors:

  • Downloading the admit card but not checking details
  • Printing the admit card at the last minute
  • Visiting the exam centre without checking the address a day before
  • Carrying prohibited items unknowingly
  • Relying on screenshots or digital copies instead of printed admit cards

Most exam-day problems are logistical, not academic.

9. What to Do Next (Preparation + Mindset)

With limited time left:

  • Focus on revision, not new topics
  • Practice time management for a 2-hour exam
  • Revisit high-weightage areas relevant to CHO responsibilities
  • Sleep well and maintain a normal routine

Confidence comes from preparation and clarity, not overthinking.
