Hello,

I am really sorry for your situation but unfortunately you cannot do anything now. Once the correction window is closed, there is no other option for making changes in application from.Now, you will have to appear as general candidate but you can raise your concern while counseling process.Meanwhile drop an email to NTA regarding the concern.Hope for best.

Good Luck
