City Intimation Slip vs Admit Card

The City Intimation Slip and admit card serve different purposes. Check the difference before making your examination arrangements.

City Intimation Slip: This document informs you about the city allotted for your examination. It helps you plan your travel and accommodation before the examination.

Admit Card: This document provides your exact examination centre address, date, shift, reporting time and other important instructions. You must carry its printed copy to the examination centre.

Once your city intimation slip is available, check the allotted city and plan your travel. Wait for the admit card to confirm your exact examination centre and address.
