If you selected CBSE-I instead of CBSE in your JEE Main form, don’t worry it’s a minor mistake. You can edit it during NTA’s correction window.
If the correction window closes, keep your original CBSE documents ready (marksheet, admit card), this error generally doesn’t affect your candidature or result verification.

Hello,
If you mistakenly choose the CBSE-I instead of the CBSE in the JEE Main form, don't worry. You can still correct it during the NTA correction window. Then you can just log in to your JEE Main application, edit the board names to CBSE, and save the changes.
I hope it will clear your query!!

Hello, You must correct this mistake, as it will cause a problem during document verification. "CBSE" and "CBSE-i" (CBSE International) are treated as two different boards by the NTA.
The only way to fix this is during the official JEE Mains Application Correction Window, which the NTA opens for a few days after the registration deadline. When this window opens (typically in December/January for the first session), you must log in to your JEE application, go to the "Edit Application Form" section, and change your qualifying exam board from "CBSE-i" to "CBSE". This is a common type of error and can be easily fixed during that period. Keep checking the official NTA JEE website for the exact correction dates.
I hope you found this information helpful and for any study related queries you can ask in careers360 app, Have a great day!
