From what I have seen over the years, many aspirants prepare well for the exam but face avoidable stress due to mistakes while downloading or checking details on the admit card. Since this exam decides eligibility for Junior Research Fellowship, Assistant Professor posts, and PhD admissions, even a small error can cause unnecessary trouble.
