NEET UG refuses a photo above 200 KB (the allowed range is 10–200 KB). Phone photos are usually 2–5 MB, so compress it to around 105 KB rather than right at the limit.
The NEET UG photo should be 3.5 × 4.5 cm (276 × 354 px at 200 DPI). A photo in a different shape gets squashed or refused, so crop it to that shape before shrinking; the tool above does both.
NEET UG refuses a signature above 30 KB (the allowed range is 4–30 KB). Phone photos are usually 2–5 MB, so compress it to around 17 KB rather than right at the limit.
A clean signature on white paper is often only a few KB, below the 4 KB minimum for NEET UG. FitMyKB raises the quality first and then adds invisible padding, so the file reaches 4 KB without changing how it looks.
