Hi I have already used the correction window too for neet and in that the issuing authority name spelling is wrong will it affect the counselling process I don't have any chance for correction now

Ans: Hi
If the issuing authority's name is spelled incorrectly on your NEET application and you've already used the correction window, don't worry too much—small spelling errors like this usually do not disqualify you from the counselling or admission process, as long as the document is otherwise valid and verifiable.

Respected sir, I did mistake in my neet application form. They meintioned candidates name and written only my name (instead of my full name)as next column was of father's name and i got confused.i didnt thought that would be a problem, but i got to know full name is important so i tried correcting it as i didn't submitted my form,but it was not allowing me to edit it. And now my form is submitted. My photo also contains my full name ,my adhar card is updated and verified successfully. The only major problem i made is not writting my full name.The update regrading correction window has came ,and there is no option in correcting candidates name. Will i suffer on exam day ? What should i do now. I know i made a mistake, but what should i do?
Ans: Hi
Don't worry too much — you're definitely not alone. Many NEET applicants go through this kind of issue.
Here's what’s in your favor:
Your Aadhaar is verified – which means NTA has matched your details with your official ID. That's already a big validation point.
Your photograph contains your full name – this further supports your identity.
Your mistake is only about not writing the full name – it's a common confusion, especially when forms have the "Father's Name" right next to "Candidate's Name".

what can you do?
Carry extra documents on exam day:
Original Aadhaar Card (with full name)

A notarized affidavit stating that both names (short and full) refer to the same person. It can be done in 1–2 days at your local notary.
If possible, carry a school ID or 10th certificate with full name too.

My son appeared for NEET 2025 and has qualified, although with a relatively lower rank of around 400,000. Considering this, he may not be able to secure a seat in a Government Medical College (GMC) through the regular counselling process. I am currently working as an engineer in the merchant navy and maintain my NRI status. We are exploring the NRI quota for his admission. However, there is a concern regarding the name mismatch in my documents. On my passport, my name is mentioned as JASPAL SAINI, whereas on all other documents it appears as JASPAL only. I do have a government-issued Gazette notification that supports and validates this difference. Will this discrepancy cause any issues during the NEET counselling and admission process? If so, what steps should I take to ensure everything proceeds smoothly?
Ans: Hello dear.
To avoid last-minute problems during counseling, carry the original Gazette notification along with multiple attested copies. Include it in any affidavit or undertaking declaring that both names belong to the same person. Keep all supporting documents (passport, proof of NRI status, relationship proof with your son, and NEET admit/score cards) ready in one folder. Present these proactively at document verification to ensure smooth processing under the NRI quota. It is also recommended to seek a legal opinion for added safety and consult the help line on the NTA website. Additionally, consider sending an email about your concerns to the counseling body for extra precaution. Rest assured, you are already on the safer side and have taken all necessary initial precautions.

Good luck.

Tech Careers and Skill Development Expert - Answered on Dec 05, 2025

Dear Sir, I did my BTech from a normal engineering college not very famous. The teaching was not great and hence i did not study well. I tried my best to learn coding including all the technologies like html,css,javascript,react js,dba,php because i wanted to be a web developer But nothing seem to enter my head except html and css. I don't understand a language which has more complexities. Is it because of my lack of experience or not devoting enough time. I am not sure. I did many courses online and tried to do diplomas also abroad which i passed somehow. I recently joined android development course because i like apps but the teaching was so fast that i could not memorize anything. There was no time to even take notes down. During the course i did assignments and understood the code because i have to pass but after the course is over i tend to forget everything. I attempted a lot of interviews. Some of them i even got but could not perform well so they let me go. Now due to the AI booming and job markets in a bad shape i am re-thinking whether to keep studying or whether its just time waste. Since 3 years i am doing labour type of jobs which does not yield anything to me for survival and to pay my expenses. I have the quest to learn everything but as soon as i sit in front of the computer i listen to music or read something else. What should i do to stay more focused? What should i do to make myself believe confident. Is there still scope of IT in todays world? Kindly advise.
Ans: Your story does not show failure.
It shows persistence, effort, and desire to improve.

Most people give up.
You didn’t.
That means you will succeed — but with the right method, not the old one.

My married ex still texts me for comfort. Because of him, I am unable to move on. He makes me feel guilty by saying he got married out of family pressure. His dad is a cardiac patient and mom is being treated for cancer. He comforts me by saying he will get separated soon and we will get married because he only loves me. We have been in a relationship for 14 years and despite everything we tried, his parents refused to accept me, so he chose to get married to someone who understands our situation. I don't know when he will separate from his wife. She knows about us too but she comes from a traditional family. She also confirmed there is no physical intimacy between them. I trust him, but is it worth losing my youth for him? Honestly, I am worried and very confused.
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand how difficult it is to let go of a relationship you have built from scratch, but is it really how you want to continue? It really seems to be going nowhere. His parents are already in bad health and he married someone else for their happiness. Does it seem like he will be able to leave her? So many people’s happiness and lives depend on this one decision. I think it’s about time you and your BF have a clear conversation about the same. If he can’t give a proper timeline, please try to understand his situation. But also make sure he understands yours and maybe rethink this equation. It really isn’t healthy. You deserve a love you can have wholly, and not just in pieces, and in the shadows.

Hope this helps
