• Do not write or place any mark over the barcodes.

• Your photograph, signature, and address are to be scanned by a machine that recognizes only good quality images, from specified areas of the form. Therefore, paste a good quality colour photograph (wear dark colored garments) with white background, taken not more than two months earlier. Write your address and sign in black ink only.

• Please note that your name, your parent’s /guardian’s name, and your date of birth should exactly be the same as given in your High school or first Board/Pre-University examination certificate. Any deviation, whenever discovered, may lead to cancellation of your candidature.
