The background must be pure white, not off-white or light blue. Also, ensure your ears are clearly visible. Don't upload a selfie!" "The signature should not be in all capital letters. Sign as you normally would. For the thumb impression, make sure the lines of your thumb are clear and not smudged. Use a fresh ink pad." "One of the biggest blunders is a mismatch between the name on your Aadhaar card and your 10th mark sheet. Ensure they are identical, including initials and spacing, before you start the application." "Don't wait for the last 2-3 days to apply. The AIIMS server gets extremely slow, and payment failures are common. Aim to complete your application at least a week before the deadline." Application Done? Now the Real Preparation Begins.
