More Exam Centers, Better Accessibility
According to the NTA, the number of JEE Main applicants is expected to rise this year. To accommodate this, additional exam centers will be set up across cities to help candidates find centers closer to their homes. The agency has also assured improved facilities for candidates with disabilities to ensure smooth participation.
Important Advisory: Update Certificates
Earlier, on September 29, the NTA issued a notice urging applicants to update key documents to prevent rejection of their applications. Candidates have been advised to ensure the accuracy and validity of the following certificates:
Students should verify that details on their Aadhaar — including name, date of birth, photo, address, and father’s name — are correct and consistent with their Class 10 marksheet.
Candidates belonging to reserved categories or those with disabilities must make sure their certificates are valid, updated, and renewed if necessary, before applying
