What Are the Top Rejection Reasons for NEET UG Images?
The National Testing Agency enforces strict criteria for candidate documents: - Insufficient Face Visibility: The candidate's face must occupy 80% of the photograph area with ears visible and without mask. - Non-White Background: Photographs with colored, outdoor, or shadowed backgrounds are not accepted. - Signature File Out of Bounds: Signatures smaller than 10 KB or larger than 100 KB fail portal verification. - Obscured Features: Wearing caps, dark glasses, or spectacles with flash glare hiding the eyes violates guidelines. - Fabricated or Distorted Images: Computer-generated, hand-made, or stretched images lead to cancellation under unfair means rules.
