AFTER GOING THROUGH THE MISSION ADMISSION ORDEAL, I WONDER WHETHER EVEN THE DOE EXISTS OR NOT, I MEAN THE SYSTEM IS SO FLAWED THAT AN AVERAGE PARENT WILL ONLY PULL HIS HAIR AND GET NOTHING OUT OF IT. HERE IS AN INSIGHT OF THE VARIATIONS THAT HAD TO BE FOLLOWED.
AVAILABILITY OF FORMS:
1. COMPLETELY ONLINE
2. FILL ONLINE, DOWNLOAD, PASTE PHOTOGRAPHS AND THEN SUBMIT TO SCHOOL
3. DOWNLOAD A PDF, FILL IN YOUR OWN WRITING, THEN SUBMIT TO SCHOOL.
4. COLLECT FORMS AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY FROM SCHOOL,
5. GO TO SCHOOL, GET A REGISTRATION NO, THEN ACTIVATE ONLINE, FILL AND SUBMIT TO SCHOOL.

NEIGHBORHOOD CRITERIA:
1. SOME SCHOOLS DO NOT GIVE AT ALL
2. OTHERS ARE VARIABLE. SOME SCALE TO 1 KM, SOME TO 3 SOME TO 5 AND SOME TO 10. I MEAN WHY IS THIS NOT UNIFORM.

DOCUMENT FIASCO:
1. SOME SCHOOLS HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THE DOCS U HAVE
2. SOME DO NOT ACCEPT PHONE BILL AS RESIDENCE PROOF
3. SOME SCHOOLS HAVE SPECIFIC AFFIDAVIT FORMAT FOR FIRST BORN CHILD
4. SOME SCHOOLS WANT EMPLOYMENT PROOF
5. SOME WANT OCCUPANCY AT CURRENT ADDRESS FOR MORE THAN A YEAR
6. SOME EVEN WANT YOU TO HAVE OWNERSHIP OF THE HOUSE OCCUPIED.
7. OTHERS MAY ALSO HAVE A LOT TO SAY.
I MEAN WHAT IS THIS??? CANT THERE BE A COMMON FORMAT

DOCUMENT VERIFICATION:

WHY NOT ONLY THE SHORTLISTED CANDIDATES ARE CALLED FOR VERIFICATION, INSTEAD OF WHOLE THE BUNCH. I THOUGHT AFTER 15TH JAN THE DEAL IS OVER, JUST CROSS YOUR FINGERS AND WAIT FOR THE RESULTS. BUT IT SEEMS LIKE A NEVER ENDING PROCESS.

DATE OF ANNOUNCEMENT OF FIRST LIST:

MOST OF THE PARENTS WILL AGREE TO THIS.
SOME SCHOOLS ARE COMING WITH AN EARLY ANNOUNCEMENT. WHY???? ARE THEY INTERESTED IN FORFEITING OUR HARD EARNED MONEY OR IS JUST SIMPLY AT THEIR DISCRETION AS TO THEY CAN DO WHAT THEY WANT

THE REGISTRATION FEE ISSUE
1. SOME SCHOOLS DO NOT CHARGE EVEN THE NOMINAL FEE OF RS 25
2. SOME SCHOOLS NEED A CREDIT CARD TO PAY IT ONLINE.
3. SOME WANT A DEMAND DRAFT OF RS 25 (COST OF MAKING GOES OVER RS 100)
4. SOME HAVE MADE BUYING PROSPECTUS MANDATORY

I MEAN DOES THE DOE EVEN KNOW THIS.

SPECIAL POINTS ISSUE
1. NOBLE CAUSES
2. RESEARCH WORK
3. GRANDPARENTS EDUCATION AND AWARDS
WHAT HAS THIS TO DO WITH THE CHILD'S EDUCATION. IT MEANS A CHILD FROM A LOW BACKGROUND CAN NEVER BE ADMITTED INTO A PRIME SCHOOL. DOES THE SCHOOL WANT THIS BECAUSE I THOUGH MOST OF THEM SAY THEY GIVE A FAIR CHANCE TO EVERYONE. I DON'T THINK THIS IS AT ALL FAIR.

SERIOUSLY THE DOE HAS TO THINK A LOT, OTHERWISE THIS WILL CONTINUE.
PLEASE MAKE THE NORMS UNIFORM.
