Requirement patterns
Common exam file requirements
The specifications portals ask for most often, ready to apply in one tap. These are common patterns, not official specifications — exact values change between notification cycles, so always copy the numbers from your own portal's current notice before submitting.
Photographs

Before you submit
FormReady is independent and none of these entries is an official specification. Portals revise requirements between recruitment cycles — open your notification's photo/signature instructions, confirm the numbers, and adjust the preset values if they differ. Applied presets land in Make file compliant, where every value stays editable.
