Hello Sandeep.

Thanks for choosing career360.

If u have opted for general category in the paper 1 and want to change that one in OBC in the next exam,that can't be possible as u cannot go downstairs in the reservation facility.

That means u can opt for general while being in OBC in the admissions procedure but not for the SC cat geory . There is only a rule to come out of the category but not getting in from outside after filling general.

Hope u got ur answer.

Ask for any other query

Good luck
