Steps

- Use Horizontal position to centre your face.
- Align your face inside the oval guide.
- Click Fix size & download JPG, then Download JPG.
- Upload that file on the NBEMS portal (pre-saved photograph).
Optional: use Capture real-time to practise webcam framing (still follow portal capture rules on exam day / registration).
