Common Challenges Faced by Students

Despite the NTA making the application process smoother, many students still encountered several issues this year:

1. Typing & Data Entry Mistakes
Rushing through the form often led to incorrect details such as the wrong date of birth, incorrect category codes, or an unintended exam city selection.

2. Aadhaar Mismatch Problems
Differences in spelling, numbers, or personal details between Aadhaar and school records triggered verification errors for many applicants.

3. Photo & Signature-Related Rejections
A large number of uploads were rejected because the image did not show 80% of the face, had poor lighting, wrong dimensions, or incorrect orientation.

4. Incorrect Document Formats
Students frequently uploaded PNG or HEIC files instead of the mandatory JPG or PDF formats, leading to repeated errors.

5. Technical Glitches During Submission
Heavy traffic caused server delays, slow page loading, and payment gateway failures, especially during peak hours.

6. Issues Due to Mobile Form Filling
Applications filled on mobile browsers often displayed incomplete fields, misplaced data, or formatting inconsistencies.
