Candidates must be familiar with the paper code because it is necessary for both the application and the examination.
Each candidate should submit only one application. If they want to appear in a second paper (from the two-paper combination), they can include that paper in their original application. In the event of duplicate applications, only one will be approved, and the remaining applications will be denied with no refund for the paid cost.
