For Exam Day

Asked by Riddhi on 2026-11-10 in CAT Prep

Very weird question, but if anyone has prior experience please let me know.
I have a helix piercing which is healing. It is a very small industrial grade stainless steel earring that I wear. I cannot remove it or wear it myself. It needs to be done professionally. How strict are the rules of no jewellery for the exam day? I will remove the other earrings no issues. I will remove this one as well if need be. But I just want to know if it is super strict or what.
For context, my centre is in Kolkata.
Thanks in advance!

take the worst case scenerio what if they told you to take it off....now what options left with you at the exam centre you might panic nothing else so its better to dont gave any chance to them also precaution is better than cure... otherwise its your call

Like it depend on the Exam centre and the staff there, but I think they will consider your situation.
