A quick clarification that trips up many first-time candidates: the city intimation slip and the admit card are not the same document. The city slip (out since September 3) only confirms your allotted exam city so you can plan travel. The admit card - released on September 9, 2026 - is the mandatory document carrying your exact centre address, reporting time, roll number, and exam-day instructions, and it's what you must carry to gain entry.

NPrep Expert Tips: What Most Admit Card Guides Won't Tell You

Beyond the standard ""download and print"" advice, here's what actually matters in the final 72 hours before a CBT like NORCET:

• Cross-check your city slip against your admit card. AIIMS occasionally allots a centre in a different locality within the same city than what the intimation slip suggested. Confirm the exact address on the admit card itself, not your earlier assumption.
• Do a dry run of your route today, not exam morning. For an unfamiliar exam city, factor in local traffic patterns and weekend transport schedules for September 12 (a Saturday), when public transport frequency often drops.
• Photocopy your ID proof and admit card the night before. Centres frequently reject mismatched signatures or blurry printouts - a spare set avoids last-minute panic at the gate.
• Recalibrate your revision, not your syllabus. With roughly three days left, this is a window for timed mock CBTs and error-log review, not fresh topics. Prioritize high-weightage areas like Medical-Surgical Nursing and Community Health Nursing, which historically carry the largest share of NORCET's question distribution.
• Prep for Stage 2 in parallel. Since Mains is already scheduled for September 30, candidates who begin advanced-level revision now - rather than after Prelims results - consistently report less last-minute pressure.
