  • Step – 6: Then you’ll be asked to provide you prior education details. Fill them out accordingly.
  • Step – 7: Now you’ll be asked to enter your NTS details. If you have a valid NTS result available, enter the details in the portal. If you’ve registered for the NTS test center and have a roll-no for it, add it to the screen.
