Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Not Reading the Full Notification: Many candidates skim through the notification and miss critical details about eligibility, application procedure, or required documents. Always read the entire PDF carefully.
• Incorrect or Incomplete Information: Filling in wrong dates, percentages, or personal details can lead to disqualification during document verification. Double-check every entry.
• Missing the Deadline: Submitting the application after 10 August 2026, even by a day, will result in rejection. Plan to send your offline application well in advance.
• Incorrect Application Fee Payment: Paying the wrong amount, using an unaccepted payment method, or failing to attach the payment proof can invalidate your application.
• Not Attaching All Required Documents: Forgetting to include a copy of a crucial certificate (e.g., B.Ed. degree, CTET/TET, caste certificate) is a common mistake. Create a checklist and verify before dispatch.
• Sending Unattested Documents: If the notification asks for self-attested copies, ensure you sign on each photocopy. Sending unattested copies might lead to rejection.
• Wrong Category Selection: Selecting an incorrect reservation category can cause issues during eligibility checks or document verification. Be precise with your category.
• Illegible Handwriting or Unclear Photographs: For offline applications, ensure your handwriting is clear and readable. Affix a recent, clear photograph that is easily identifiable.
• Not Keeping a Copy of the Application: Always retain a photocopy of your filled application form, payment receipt, and postal dispatch proof. This serves as proof of submission and helps in case of any discrepancies.
• Assuming Eligibility: Do not assume you are eligible based on general criteria. Cross-verify every specific requirement for your chosen post against your qualifications and experience.
