The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) will open an edit facility for its Direct Recruitment Quota (DRQ) Examination 2026. This allows registered candidates to correct particulars in their online application forms. The edit window will be active from December 29 to December 30, 2024 , closing at 12:00 PM. Candidates must access this facility through the official CBSE website, cbse.gov.in.
The DRQ 2026 examination aims to recruit personnel for various positions. These include Assistant Professor, Assistant Director, and other roles within the central board. The edit facility is exclusively available to candidates who have successfully completed their online application forms and paid the requisite examination fees.
One-Time Correction Facility
This correction window is a one-time opportunity for applicants. CBSE emphasizes that candidates must make all corrections carefully. No further chances to modify application details will be provided after the December 30 deadline. Accuracy is critical for all submitted information.
Changes made to the application may affect the total fee amount. If corrections result in an increased fee, candidates are required to pay the excess amount. CBSE explicitly states that any overpayment made will not be refunded. Candidates must ensure correct fee submission alongside their corrections.
