The night before
- Print the admit card and check your name, photo, date, shift and centre address against your ID.
- Keep the original photo ID named on the admit card, and a second one in case of a mismatch.
- Find the centre on a map and plan to arrive well before the reporting time: gates close on time.
- Read the instructions printed on your own admit card: they are the final word for your exam.
