Thanks Sanchit sir for solving my query. Yesterday I have searched on
Google phone number and email ID of my center but I didn't find any of
them. I only got direction. I am planning to take my own scribe. I am

[Ai] Query Regarding NET

Hai. I am Sana here. I am appearing in November 2017 UGC NET exam.
Today I have got my admit card, but they havn't properly mentioned
guidelines for scribe. They have only mentioned that scribe should not
have done graduation in the same subject of candidate. They havn't
mentioned what documents of scribe are required and when to submit the
documents. Someone who have given NET earlier must have an idea about
this. I hope you will resolve my query. I will take my own scribe.

2017-09-18 Thread Sana Samad via Ai
I would like to thank BGFI for taking up this cause. All the
suggestions mentioned in letter should be implimented. Apart from
those, I would like to say RBI should use plastic instead of paper for
printing notes because braille doesn't get easily faded on plastic
notes. It will be cost affective also. Canada and Australia use
plastic for printing currency. Coins should be of different shapes and
sizes which will make identification easier. Representatives should
study what steps other countries have taken for making currency
accessible before going to the meeting, so that they can provide
feasible solution. I am sure tomorrow's meeting will bring change in
our lives.

> 2.Mandate adoption of available accessibility guidelines for mobile

> 3.Use both length and width of the notes to differentiate between
> each of the notes. The length of the new Rs. 2000, Rs. 500, Rs. 200
> and Rs. 50 is the same.
> 4.Categorize notes into two sets in terms of sizes, one for lower
> denominations and the other for higher denominations. Differentiate
> each set with a minimum of 10mm in length.
> 5.Maintain variation of at least 10mm in width between every note,
> for both lower and higher denominations. For instance the variation in
> length between Rs. 200 and Rs. 500 is just 4mm which is extremely
> difficult to differentiate.
> 6.Incorporate easily perceptible tactile marking, embossed letters
> and / or bleed lines. These features should not fade away with use and
> should be very easy to feel. The bleed lines newly introduced in the
> new Rs. 2000 and Rs. 500 notes are absolutely not perceivable and are
> of no help.
> 7.Phase out all the new notes including Rs. 50, Rs. 200, Rs. 500 and
> Rs. 2000 notes on priority as its size conflict with the old Rs. 10
> and Rs. 20. This will be easier as the number of new notes under
> circulation are relatively lower.
> 8.Use different shapes or curved edges for both notes and coins to
> differentiate.
> 9.Use very distinct colors for people with low vision to identify.
> The new notes released recently have been well differentiated by
> colors. We appreciate and welcome the change incorporated.
> 10.   Adopt contrast colors of the note and of the figures highlighting
> the denomination.
> 11.   Use large font size for the figures highlighting the denominations.
> 12.   The texture of the notes should be different from normal paper.
> Maintain the variation in texture in case any other material like
> plastic is used in future.
> 13.   Involve sufficient number of representative sample of blind
> individuals for testing of prototype and final version of notes before

> 14.   Review Indian Currency Accessibility guidelines every five years

[Ai] Coaching Regarding RBI GRB Exam

2017-09-02 Thread Sana Samad via Ai
Hai. I hope every one is fine there. I am Sana here. I am in 2nd year
of MBA. In 2018 I am planning to give RBI GRB exam. I reside in Delhi.
Although I have taken CAT coaching but I face difficulty in Quant and
LRDI section. I have started studying Finance and Management portion.
I will study GK from GK Today. I am not able to figure out from where
should I study Economic and Social Issue portion. Education IQ
provides pen drive course for both phases. Lectures are in vedio form.
Should I buy it or not. Can someone tell from where should I do RBI
GRB coaching. Does Enable India provide coaching of RBI GRB or provide
tutorials. I am comfortable even with online coaching or course. My
aim is to build command on Quant and LRDI and to have a fair idea on
what to study and how to study. This will also help me in giving other
competitive exams as well. Since time is less so I want to start
preparation ASAP. I hope you will help and guide me. Eagerly waiting
for your reply.

[Ai] Urgent Query Related to Software

2017-08-09 Thread Sana Samad via Ai
I hope every one is fine there. I am Sana here. I am in editing team
of my college magzine which is published every year in September. For
editing articles our college use Grammerly. Grammerly is a software
which corrects grammetical errors if we paste the text in it. I have
tried downloading the software from net but I don't think it is
compatible with JAWS. Kindly let me know is Grammerly compatible with
JAWS 15 and on windows 7. If it is not compatible then is there any
other software or way through which I can do editing. Please reply by
tomorrow because I have to give my confirmation. Reply on the ID
mentioned below ASAP.
