You should reach the CDS exam centre at least 1 hour before the exam start time mentioned on your admit card. It is advisable to reach the centre a little earlier to avoid any last-minute rush or unforeseen circumstances. The reporting time is usually mentioned on the admit card, so make sure to check it carefully. You will not be allowed to enter the exam hall if you report late.
