Helllo,
You can update your date of issue on an EWS certificate while there is a correction window for JEE Main. The National Testing Agency usually throws open such a window for updating fields like reservation category details, on which all applicants get updates in their application forms, including an EWS certificate. The correction window for the 2024 JEE cycle will open in December 2023 and again in January 2024. Here is your opportunity to update the issue date of EWS certificate; if any certificate issued after April 1, 2024, is not updated currently in your application.
For corrections on EWS or other categories, one can check the update announcements from the official site of JEE Main or Careers360 before availing the correction dates and guidelines.
For information about the correction process, have a look at the official guidance on Careers360: JEE Main correction window details on Careers360
Hello,
Yes, it is possible to attempt JEE Main Paper 1 for admission in B.Tech or B.E. and the Paper 2 for getting into B.Arch/B.Planning the same year. The NTA carries out these tests, which generally are scheduled separately. This is done to enable appearing candidates to appear for both of them in the same year.
Generally, Paper 1 B.Tech/B.E. and Paper 2 B.Arch are not conducted on the same day. NTA releases an exact schedule which specifies dates and time slots for all papers. Check the official notification and the timetable for JEE Main to find the exact schedule, so whether you have some gap in time between these exams, it will help you plan for your both the exams, if you wish to take up both of them.
Hello,
Filling in your name as per your Aadhaar card in the JEE Main 2025 application form is correct and generally recommended.
The name on your application form should match your official identification documents like Aadhaar to avoid discrepancies during the verification process at the examination center or for later admissions. Just make sure that the other details (like your father's name, date of birth, etc.) also match your official documents.

Hello,
Yes, it’s possible to join the Indian Army’s intelligence services even if you pursued computer science in classes 11 and 12. Here’s a breakdown of the process and criteria, particularly for civilian students and women:
No JEE Requirement for Army Intelligence Corps : JEE is not required for joining the Army Intelligence Corps. JEE primarily facilitates entry into engineering programs, like at the National Defence Academy (NDA) or technical institutions. Intelligence roles are typically accessed through other Army pathways.
Entry Through UPSC or SSC Examinations : Civilian students can join the Indian Army by clearing the Combined Defence Services (CDS) examination or the Short Service Commission (SSC). Women can apply for SSC, which allows entry into intelligence or other non-combat roles.
Intelligence Corps Eligibility :
Criteria for Girls :
In summary, while computer science knowledge can be beneficial, JEE is not mandatory for entering intelligence. Women can join the Intelligence Corps through SSC routes.

We all know the importance of class 10th and class 12th marksheet. Class 10th is considered like an birth certificate. These certificates play a big role in higher studies and in jobs . During, documents verification, class 12th marksheet is also seen,along with other proofs ,so it might create problems for you as your name would be different in those documents. But don't worry.
If there is a mistake in name's spelling or father or mother name,then CBSE provide correction option to the students. For correction in name in 12th marksheet, you can follow few steps.
Students can take the application form for name correction from the official website of CBSE board.
Fill the application form with correct details.
Submit the required documents like school leaving certificate .
Then you need to deposit some few for correction.
After completing the process, board will make the necessary corrections once the verification of original records of the school is done.
